NGTX560 Single Fan Edition, freezing and sound stuttering problems

I've recently just built a new computer,
CPU- i5 2500k,
Motherboard- Gigabyte Z68M-D2H,
Ram- G.Skill Ripjaws 1600mhz 8gb(4X2kit),
PSU- Coolermaster Extreme plus 700W 52A single rail,
GPU- NGTX560 single fan edition, no overclocks whatsoever on anything.
Storage- Seagate 500gb HDD 7200Rpm Sata
OS- Windows 7 64Bit edition.
Display- Monitor is a LG IPS235, 23.5', if it even matters
When I try to play games it starts to lag, and freeze while causing sound stuttering and then completely freezes the whole computer forcing me to reboot the system. Using the 285.62 drivers.
Games for example include Starcraft 2, which when I open used to freeze straight on the loading screen forcing an immediate reboot. I allowed it through my firewall and now I get past the loading screen and can log in, but straight after I log in, sound stuttering occurs and then the whole computer freezes forcing me to reboot. Another game as an example is Killing Floor, I never got past the "Tripwire interactive" loading screen, looked on google for some fixes, after modifying some .ini files for Killing Floor I was able to get into the menu's, went to options and clicked on display to change some of the graphics settings, extreme rips in the image occured, sound stuttering and frozen on the spot. Retried again but this time didn't touch any settings at all, joined a match, the game loaded but as soon as I entered it froze forcing me to reboot. Need help please thanks
Edit: just tried Starcraft 2, made a custom match vs a bot, got into the game for 20 seconds, started mining minerals then it froze again, this time I can hear the audio still playing perfectly while the image is frozen, mouse can move around, keyboard still works. rebooted after observing these features

Sorry but i have no other video card to test if my system is stable
I haven't tried msi's drivers yet will get to doing that now
I have tried to reinstall SC2 using both the disc provided, and downloading the client from the internet
Ill get back to you with the exact video card model

MacBook Freezes and sound stutters

My Macbook randomly freezes and then a stuttering noise appears at the same time. What could be the problem? Should I take it to the Apple store even though my MacBook will look fine because the problem happens randomly?

Do the freezes occur when running under OSX, Aaron, or just under Windows?
How are you running Windows? with Bootcamp? Parallels? Something else?
Which version of Windows are you using? What version of OSX is installed?
have you installed any third party RAM? if so, what brand?
Do you have plenty of space on the drive?
Does the problem occur under both battery and power adaptor?
Have you checked the integrity of the directories using an appropriate utility?
It is near impossible to even begin to suggest possibilities unless you provide some more information.

MSI Cyclone R6850 Power Edition - Freezing and Driver recovery problem

I've just built a new Gaming PC and am having stability issues along with lower than average benchmarking results.
Randomly, the screen will freeze, sometimes go black then re-appear and an error message from the system tray will appear “display driver stopped responding & has recovered”. The system will then operate as normal until the next freeze.
I have tried all versions of the 64 bit drivers available from the MSI website, with no change in the issue. 3DMark11 benchmarking results are several hundred points below average, the same with Furmark, as the below results show;
My system is running at stock, out the box speeds, with no overclocking on my part. The components are listed below;
Cooler Master Elite 430 Case
Cooler Master Silent Pro Gold 600W Modular Power Supply
GigaByte GA-P67A-UD4 (Version B3) Mobo
Intel Core i5 2500K unlocked
4GB 2x2GB Corsair CMX4GX3M2B1600C9 Memory
Coolermaster HYPER 212 PLUS COOLER
MS Win 7 Home Prem 64bit OEM
I'm happy to run any diagnostic/benchmarking software to help identify the issue.

Thanks for the quick reply,
Unfortunately, I dont have access to another system that would be able to power the card.
I've already booked an RMA with the vendor, but am worried that they will reply with "sorry, the issue is with configuration/software" and be landed with the shipping expenses. The vendor is www.scan.co.uk

At the start of a song, iTunes freezes and it stutters

With the new install of iTunes on Windows XP, it consumes more than 97% of CPU at the start of a song with the result that the song plays like as if some one is stuttering the song and I hate it. It was never an issue with the earlier version of iTunes. The newer version also consumes 17-20% of CPU to play a song and this was not the case either earlier.
Is there a workaround to this? I have an IBM T41 laptop. Nothing has changed on my laptop except that I have a newer version of iTunes.
Your help or thoughtful ideas are appreciated except the suggestion to buy a newer and faster laptop or switch to Mac OS.

I had this problem with the freezing and stuttering. I solved this by unchecking 'crossfade playback' in edit/preferences/playback. It means you have a pause between songs during playback, but thats like most CD players anyway.
Hope this helps you.

Since firefox upgraded to to 3.6 version, google video chat no longer works - freezes and sound is distorted.

The sound now on google video chat is distorted and I freeze - very annoying as use it every day and used to work perfectly....no answers from browsing your supposed help section.
== This happened ==
Not sure how often
== firefox upgraded

You need update your Firefox up version 3.6.6 and if your problem till occur you can try disable all add-on.
If this erros still I think you need re-install Firefox with lasted version. Good Luck !!!

Mouse freeze and sound cutting out

Since I've upgraded to OSX 10.9 (Mavericks), when I switch between open programs, my Logitech Performance MX mouse (uses USB receiver) stops responding for about 30 seconds. When this happens, the audio from my Bose speakers cuts out. While the Logitech mouse is forzen, I can still use the Apple bluetooth trackpad. To be clear, this mouse.audio chain reaciton issue doesn't happen every time I switch between open applications. It doesn't seem to happen specifically when switching out of any particular application but it does seem to happen more frequently when switching out of Firefox. But like i said, even with Firefox completely closed it still happens.
Sometimes the audio will stutter a bit and then will kick back in, but sometimes even after hours the only way to get audio is to either switch to the iMac's internal speakers, or restart the computer.
I opened the console to see what was happening when the mouse freezes and I get the following lines:
11/3/13 1:43:49.000 PM kernel[0]: com_Logitech_HIPointing::terminate(kIOServiceSynchronous) timeout
11/3/13 1:43:49.000 PM kernel[0]: USB Sound assertion in AppleUSBAudioStream at line 4767
11/3/13 1:43:49.000 PM kernel[0]: IOAudioStream[0xffffff8039764000]::clipIfNecessary() - Error: attempting to clip to a position more than one buffer ahead of last clip position (478,209a)->(4a4,f26).
11/3/13 1:43:49.000 PM kernel[0]: IOAudioStream[0xffffff8039764000]::clipIfNecessary() - adjusting clipped position to (4a3,209a)

Alright, so I solved this myself by changing the resolution. Would've liked to resolve it a different way, but this works for now! So, anybody else who may see my issue.... go to system preferences>display and change the resoltuion.

IMac freezes and sounds 3 beeps since Mavericks update

I updated my iMac to Mavericks yesterday and now it intermittantly freezes and has three beeps. I am forced to hold the power button in and then restart it. I do not use Google Drive. Any suggestions. I know three beeps is supposed to be RAM related. But this only started happening the right after the Mavericks upgrade.

3 beeps indicate a RAM issue. If you upgraded the RAM yourself then please look at:
Failed RAM (RAM DIMMS can and do fail)
Incorrect RAM
Unseated RAM
If you did not upgrade the RAM then the issue may be failed RAM. The upgrade to Mavericks is almost certainly coincidence.

Same Sound Stuttering Problem as 50000 other people

http://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Notebook-PC-Sound-and-Audio/8560w-sound-stuttering-when-playing-music/m...
and dozens more threads like this
And still no fix. This is ridiculous. I have tried everything, changing to high performance, updating drivers, leaving computer unplugged, turning off HDD protection. Nothing works. This is insane, I work a lot with music how am I supposed to do so when I can't even function on my computer? I think all of us with a problem should just organize into one thread and send a petition or large letter to something. In the mean time, has any one person come up with any other solutions that acould potentially work? Thanks.

See if this is applicable to your situation...
If you have the HP Power Assistant/Power Manager installed, uninstall it and either live without (I don't see the real value in this program as W7 has plenty of power settings you can modify), or install an earlier version of the software.

Equium A110-276 DVD image and sound playback problems

A couple of months ago my Equium A110-276 stopped playing DVDs correctly.
The sound and images on the DVDs are slow, sometimes skip and are generally out of sync.
I downloaded the latest drivers however it didnt make any difference. If i stream a video from youtube for example the picture and sound are both fine.
Anyone think of anything I can do to fix it?!
Thanks
Siobhan

Hi
If the video stream looks ok then everything seems to be ok with the graphic card.
I think either there is something wrong with the CD/DVD driver or with the software itself.
I have investigated a little bit in this forum and found this thread regarding a very similar issue:

Video and sound stutters in imovie project, made up entirely of stills with voice-over and music. I'm using iMovie 9.0.4 on a PowerBook 2GHz running 10.6.8 with 274 GB of space free. Size of project is 588 Gb.

This particular project is made up entirely of still photos with Ken Burns moves and dissolves between each photo. As I got further into the project, the voice over audio started stuttering, and now it hardly plays at all with a motorboat sound when it does play. I've also started added music with the dsame audio problem. I'm running on a Mac PowerBook 2GHz using System 10.6.8. I have IMovie version 9.0.4. The project file size is 588 Mb. I have 274 Gb of hard disc space left. I have shut off all other running programs and even disconnected from the internet, but nopthing seems to help. I acts like it's a memory problem of some sort, but all other applications run fine.

Small "freeze" and sound issue when taking a full screenshot

Hello,
This is a strange one, and I've not been using Macs properly for very long, so bear with me
It only happens when I use cmdshift3 to take a full screenshot, the other shortcuts for taking them are fine, I do get a similar issue when using Grab and it, too, only occurs on the full screen capture. What happens is, the sound clip of the camera noise will begin to play, stop, it goes a little distorted then the windows on screen will freeze up, the mouse will still move, and it stays like that for around 5 seconds until the file is saved to the desktop and all goes back to normal again. I'd like to reiterate that it only does this when i do a full screenshot, and the smaller one with the crosshairs and the individual windows is perfectly fine.
I tried searching on google, on the main support section and the forums and nothing has come up that's been helpful. I've had a look in the system logs, and at the time's I take the screenshot, the system log reports the following:
Sep 24 14:04:09 xxxxxxxx-computer kernel[0]: IOAudioStream[0x4db4a00]::clipIfNecessary() - Error: attempting to clip to a position more than one buffer ahead of last clip position (2,728)->(3,7bd).

Sep 24 14:04:33 xxxxxxxx-computer kernel[0]: IOAudioStream[0x4db4a00]::clipIfNecessary() - adjusting clipped position to (5,73a)
I know from that it's referring to my soundcard and there's a memory reference, but that's about as much as I can figure out.
It might not seem a big issue as the other methods are ok, but if it turns out to be something much deeper I'd like to try and fix it now before it becomes a problem.
Does anyone have any ideas?
Thanks,
Claire

Bingo! EXACT same problem here! It seems to me its a software bug.. ??

Macbook pro freezes and sound loops

Hello everyone,
My mbp, which I bought last summer, has been having freezing issues in Windows. These freezes seem to happen at random, but predominantly when I am playing games. The screen would stop where it froze (everything would be still), and the sound would continuously loop. The only way out of this problem is to hold down the power button to force the mbp to turn off. When I turn the computer back on, the mbp will freeze in the windows loading screen (when the thing is moving back and forth inside the bar). It usually takes a couple tries to get my computer to start back up again without freezing in the process. However, it is not only while playing games that I encounter this freezing problem, sometimes, the computer freezes while I am playing music or even while browsing the internet.
Any help would be very much appreciated,
Aaron

Do the freezes occur when running under OSX, Aaron, or just under Windows?

TS1367 My PowerMac G5 will not start up. There is no startup chime, no display and the fans speed up and sound like and airplane after about 30 seconds. Can someone help?

I push the power button, and it turns on, but there is no startup chime, no video display, and after 30 seconds, the fans spin up. Any ideas?

G5 has these hardware issues:
-- bad capacitors on logic board
-- bad capacitors in power supply
-- badly soldered video chip
-- "There were several Mac models with flat panel displays that had bad displays.
     Most had serial numbers beginning with "W8"---the code for one specific factory.
     This affected PowerBooks as well. If that's the case, the rest of the computer
     is probably fine." by Allan Jones in

AIR 2.7.1: Help with sound stuttering problem in IOS!

Hi all,
I need to play audio in the background but unfortunately, it came out unstable:
- On the 1st run after installing, it'll play fine until it loops, that's when the audio goes out completely.
- On subsequent runs, the audio plays and loops but it stutters.
I have scoured the forums and googled but couldn't find much advice other than the audio settings to use:
- MP3 Compression
- 128 kbps Bit Rate
- 44.1 kHz sample rate
The audio file is in the library and I call it up with the Sound object.
Some additional info, I wrote a custom script to loop my sound:
- I have 2 SoundChannels
- I use a Timer to track the audio progress
- When the 1st channel is almost up, I play the 2nd channel; the 'old' channel fades out and stops while the 'new' channel plays and fades in
I'm not sure what else I need to look for but any pointers will be great!
Thanks!

@pixelshocks,
This is strange. I am not able to reproduce the stuttering on the app you shared with the bug, https://bugbase.adobe.com/index.cfm?event=bug&id=2988720, using the AIR 3.
I tried playing audio continuously in foreground, and then after bringing it back up from background. In both the cases, the stuttering doesn't happen anymore. Can you please list the steps to reproduce the problem?
@saariko
For AIR on iOS, you need to download the Windows/Mac sdk. There is no separate runtime installer on iOS.
