Really Choppy Sound in Windows 7

?Hi guys, i want to share my problem and seek a possible fix. So thats my problem: I get really CHOPPY sound in games, outside everything is fine, everything is OK, but in-game its like listening to a vynil played a thousand times. My rig is the following: Win7 x64, 4GB RAM, Nvidia 9800GT GPU, XtremeMusic installed on my PCI slot, latest Creative drivers (drivers only, nothing else). The problem happens in games that are not EAX compatible: Battlefield Bad Company 2, Left 4 Dead 2. Put in simple: it happens randomly, it affects all games. Sometimes i get it fixed in L4D2 by changing the output a couple of times (i.e 2>5.>7.>2) but most of the times i have to exit the game and pray to start clean. I tried daniel_k drivers but with them i randomly loose the whole sound output and i have to change through the Working modes to get it back. If anything in summary: i regret purchasing this piece of **bleep**. But still i'll welcome any help to fix my issues.

Re: Choppy sound in Windows 7 on Sound Blaster Audigy SEk What I meant was when you uninstall your graphics driver and use standart VGA drivers then the sound turns to normal without any crackling/popping. But of course you wouldnt want to do that or else you wouldnt have graphics accerelation. (You can't play video games and even watch any kind of video)
For instance you freshly setup windows, dont install any nvidia/ati drivers, just with the big screen, install the creative drivers u wont have any problem with your sound.
That's why I said that there's a kind of confliction between graphics interface and creative drivers. Because when u install any kind of display driver, crackling sound starts again.
There's no solution for this except updated SB drivers. And that's why people get mad to creative on this forum. (Not only on this forum of course, it's a worldwide madness)

Choppy sound in Windows 7 on Sound Blaster Audigy SE

Hey all,
I recently upgraded to Windows 7 and I love it with the exception of my sound card. Ever since I upgraded, all my sounds are super choppy (like every 5 seconds it chops). Of course I installed the new creative windows 7 drivers but it didn't fix the problem. Anyone have any ideas as to what could be causing this or other possible solutions to try?
Thanks,
Jason

Ekiga has very choppy sound

I've tried running Ekiga both on 32 and 64 bit Arch, and I can't seem to get it to function correctly. What's happening is I get really choppy sound. I believe that all of my sound system is functioning properly, and I could run Skype under 32 bit just fine (when I had 32 bit). I've tried changing the audio codecs with only minor changes in the results. I've turned off echo cancelation. I've played with the jitter settings. Nothing seems to fix it. My best guesses are:
1) The codecs simply don't like my audio components (or visa-versa).
2) Ekiga is running at a too nice 'nice' level or
3) The Ekiga SIP server sucks ass ([email protected] is my test site)
Does anyone here have any ideas other than setting up a chroot environment?
---------->>>>>>> Edit
I tried twinkle just to see if SIP clients work. Twinkle works fine with the [email protected] test site. Ekiga is the problem. What am I missing?

Hi @vdadashzadeh ,
Welcome to the HP Support Forums! To get your issue more exposure I would suggest posting it in the commercial forums since this is a commercial product. You can do this at http://h30499.www3.hp.com/hpeb/

Please need help!! Voice sounds really choppy

I HAVE A LIVE CAM VIDEO IM VF0350, I hooked up my mike and wanted to test the sound and hear a horrible choppy sound,
Any one know what this might me caused from?

Yeah, it might just be a playback thing, because a lot of audio can drag the speed down, and then the audio plays like it's in quicksand. If you have enough tape you should do a test export; meaning...export all 15 minutes of your project so far. And then watch it just to make sure the audio is still working.

Hi Brandon045 and welcome to the community,
Is your problem anything like this thread ?
What antivirus are you running? Any 3rd party firewalls? You might want to open your resource monitor and see what the processor usage is when this happens.

Choppy Sound using the X-fi Platin

hey guys, just have a problem.
has anyone else using the X-Fi Platinum Card under Vista Experiance choppy sound and/or drop out's depending on what your doing I'm using driver version 2.8.0004 and im experiancing very very weird sound distortions and what not during game play when i play World of warcraft in a window. it's really strange behaviour so ill try and explain it best i can.
Normally, when i play WoW I play it at in a Window. and alot of time's i want to listen to music while i play the game. when i have the sound enabled while playing the game and try and load up itunes the music will work fine. but when i disable the sound in game and contenue to listen to music the sound gets all choppy and distorted, and on rare occasions it'll drop out. but if i have the sound disabled in game and try and play a mp3 it doesnt work at all and just sits there at 0:00
Its the same thing when i want to watch TV and play WoW at the same time.
When i have the sound enabled, the Audio playback in my TV Tuner Card/Software work's perfectly fine (aside from the occasional strange static popping sounds in and out sounds) its when i disable In Game sound in WoW is where i'd start having problems.
its not just with WoW either, when im watching TV and start web browsing, and try and load up something on youtube, usualy ill hear a loud static POP sound before the audio drops.
and if i try and load up itunes too watch a video, same thing, static sound. then audio drop out.
I'd blame vista if i wasnt having similar problems on XP before i upgraded.at the most, these problems just negate my ability too multi task like i'd like too on multipule screens. but atleast when i was on XP i was only geting the occassional audio drop out, and was able to multi task like i wanted too. but can anyone explain what's going on..
Thanks in advanced, my system specs are in my signature.

Yes, most people are having these same issues.

I've had this problem for a while now, I just ignored it in the past, now I'm really fed up. I've tried everything, downloading Realteck, burning BootCamp drivers onto the CD (I have a Lion which came with no disc), I tried playing around with the Sound in Control Pannel. Someone please help me!

Windows7 64 bit and Audigy 2 choppy sound while recording what you hear

Driver version I have currently installed 6.0..37 I tried to record off youtube in "What You hear" while using Wavelab5 mode and the sound is very choppy, I tried every setting I could think of but am unable to record, I managed to get one recording but tnext one with same settings is coming up rearry choppy. Another problem when browsing the support I click on "If your product is not listed above, please click here" I choose Audigy-->Audigy2 but I get nothing in the next window, I tried on FF and IE8 but nothing populates in the next field, found another way to get to the drivers but when I choose Windows 7 64 bit and choose drivers it takes me to the main support page here <a rel="nofollow" href="http://support.creative.com/welcome.aspx"]http://support.creative.com/welcome.aspx[/url]
I am on:
Intel Q2600
Gigabyte GA-X48-DQ6
2 x 2GB DDR2 - 800 CL4 Ballistix
Windows7 Ultimate 64 bit
Kaspersky Internet Security 200.
All current Windows7 updates are installed.
Oh yeah I can hear music (mp3, avi, youtube or any online source) no problem in either winamp, WMP2 or in Wavelab5 while monitoring. It's only the recording that is giving me trouble.
Cheers
Rob.

<div class="DownloadDate">"Release date : 3 Jul 09<div class="DownloadShortDesc">This?download is a?driver providing Microsoft? Windows?7, Windows Vista? and Windows XP support for Creative Sound Blaster? Audigy? series of audio devices. For more details, read the rest of this web release note."?
Right where do I start...... I got the latest drivers installed, "What You Hear" was working for about oh four recordings then stopped and back to choppy recorded sound, I went through alll options and nada. So I downloaded Audacity to see if this was a problem with Wavelab and re-tried. Well same thing choppy sound and even rebooting did not help. So I will be taking EVERYTHING!!!!!! CREATIVE off my machine, if these idiots cannot be bothered to release drivers that work then I'm going elsewhere. My music creating will have to be put on hold, my 22m will still have to sit in it's box.
Creative you are all a bunch of ?$"?%$%" idiots period. You have ALWAYS (till now in my case anyway) had good drivers. Even though Windows 7 has been in RC for ages you (absolutely missed that boat, hell you didn't even get up to try to catch it) cannot be bothered to write drivers that work and your idiotic half cooked attempts at customer service to give your bread and butter (that's right your customers who keep you in business) solid drivers are an absolute joke. YOU CAN KISS MY SHINY METAL HINEY!!!!! (thanks Bender lol). I am going to my onboard drivers. Thanks Creative (the name "creative" is kind of contradiction in itself, you should look up the meaning of the word lol). Oh and I will be advising EVERYONe who thinks of upgrading to Windows7 to avoid Creative hardware.

Question for forum users: what is the best way to get rid of every bit of drivers?

Hi, I have recently bought an LED and connecting my laptop through HDMI to LED choppy sound??

Hi, I have recently bought an LED and connecting my laptop through HDMI to LED choppy sound??
It produces the sound ok for a mnt or two and then again no sound or choppy/cracking... any idea...I have already updated the BIOD , updated the HDMI audio drivers and the CHIPSET drivers... but still the same problem.
Would really appreciate if you can help resolving. Thanks

Welcome to the Apple Community.
You must restore from a computer.
Get yourself a micro USB cable (sold separately), you can restore your Apple TV from iTunes:
Remove ALL cables from Apple TV. (if you don't you will not see Apple TV in the iTunes Source list)
Connect the micro USB cable to the Apple TV and to your computer.
Reconnect the power cable (only for Apple TV 3)
Open iTunes.
Select your Apple TV in the Source list, and then click Restore.

Start Navigation sound in Windows 7 64 bit dissappeared

? [size="">I have been scratching my head over this one.
[size="">After doing a clean install of Windows 7 64 bit on a new build this week, and installing a new X-Fi PCIe Titanium Fatality Pro, I found the start navigation windows sound was no longer there - I am talking about the brief sound you hear, that sounds like a click, when you click a link, double click a folder to open , etc. I could find the sound in windows sounds, but when I pressed test I could not hear it.
[size="">
[size="">After much trial and error, I discovered that I had to disable sound blaster enhancements, in the properties tab for speakers in the sound card settings. I now have that windows sound back.
[size="">When I enable sound blaster enhancements, it goes away, when I disable them, it is back to normal.
[size="">
[size="">Is this normal or unique to me?

Wow, that fixed? my problem also by disabling soundblaster enhancements. How were you able to figure that one out? I was trying to figure it'sout also many months ago when I first got windows 7 beta and couldn't do it. Anyway,
Seems like most people don't like this start navigation sound, but I do.
I don't like the fact of having to disable soundblaster enhancements also.
Have you noticed that if you change the windows theme to something else it will actually work?

Never used microphone input before, sound recorder window okay, no sound output.

Sound from sound recorder input goes nowhere, a sound window is supposed to open, it does not.
There is some software missing in my pavilion g7 laptop. Media player sound is fine, internet sound
is fine, only sound missing is from the microphone input. The sound recorder window is open and the
recording bar is moving as the input varies, how do I get the sound to the speakers. Never used this
option before, it might be defective from the factory.
This question was solved.
View Solution.

Problem solved. You cannot turn on computer with the microphone or other audio cable plugged in.
Otherwise the computer does not respond to the inputs, you have to plug in the microphone or audio
cable after logging in and then a window will open that allows you to select the that input over the default.

How to turn off volume adjustment sound under Windows 7

Hey all,
I'm running Windows7 x64 on an Intel iMac (July 2010 revision).
Things are running well for the most part. However, I am unable to find a way to turn off the blooping sound played when adjusting the volume in Windows 7 (I know how to turn it off in OS X). I have tried turning off all system sounds under Windows,but the volume adjustment sound still plays. Does anyone know how to turn this off? I find it jarring. I would appreciate any help that anyone can give.
Thanks.

That too bad because I use the MBP to do my radio show and it's very annoying. I know you can turn it off on the mac side.

Motherboard:Hewlett-Packard HP Pavilion dv6700 Notebook PCChipset del motherboard nVIDIA nForce 7150M-630M, AMD Hammer Memoria GeForce
I was unable to configure I need help please

Well after about 3 days of googling I finally found a driver that works...it's
http://rapidshare.com/files/21232083/ati_conexant_audio_driver_x64.rar
Don't think it was the same one I used last time, but I heard this ATI southbridge driver does work to fix the Conexant sound. The ATI driver added a few junk items to my desktop, "free games, 1000 free songs, and free dolphin screensaver." I guess I can enjoy them now that my sound's working.
