i have a live show coming up so i busted out the ol trusty laptop and i noticed my music pgm has an audible click with simultaneous skip when playing audio.. the clicks are 2.5 to 3 seconds apart.. i checked other apps and its the same thing.. playing a .wav file, using win amp, watching an .avi all have this click and skip when playing audio.. WHY IS THIS HAPPENING?? looking for others with similar experiences. |

ARGH I had the exact same problem with my sound card - I resolved the Winamp playback issue by using the DirectSound driver. I had a similar regular ticking in Cubase that I fixed by getting a different version of cubase. Depending on the type of sound card, the apps you're using, and whether or not you're doing any live playing (with like a midi keyboard), you might be able to fix things by bumping up the DMA buffer size or using a DirectSound driver instead of ASIO. But then your latency goes up so it's not so nice for midi triggering from a keyboard or controller. What, OS, sound card, etc? |

I think, in times like these, it's best to take out your anger by breaking things. try throwing a lamp against a fire hydrant. or better yet, hurl a small piece of furniture into the cast of the Today show on NBC. but seriously, that sucks man. best of luck! i'd say change soundcards... |

Ohhh wait laptop - yuck - so it has one of those built in crystal audio chipsets or something? Or are you using a USB sound interface? |

it is a little bomb someone put in your laptop and the detonator is counting down...! assuming you are using windows: seriously, i would recommend uninstalling the soundcard through the system menu in your control panel (as in not physically) then shut the computer down and turn it bak on (better than a plain restart) and let the card be autodetected by the pc: it will uninstall the card and hopefully get round a common pain in the arse problem caused by windows updating your media drivers: this caused so many XP headaches it is unbelievable. try this before the buffer tricks cos it is generally better practice |
