Frequent Audio/Video stuttering while watching movies, playing games

My desktop keeps stuttering every few minutes or so. I have all of the drivers up to date and I cannot figure out what is wrong. The problem occurs the most while watching Netflix and playing games, but happens pretty regularly in general.

Specs:
Core i7 2600k
Asus p8p67 deluxe
Asus Engtx 570
Corsair 8 gb 1600 mhz ram

Hi,

I would suggest you to check the performance in “Safe mode with networking”.

Run the Windows Audio Playback Diagnose and Repair from the below MS FIX-IT: http://support.microsoft.com/mats/AudioPlayback/

You can even try running Microsoft Fix IT’s from the URL mentioned below according to the issue:

If this issue started occurring after doing some recent software changes on your computer, then I would suggest you to restore your system back to a date when it was working fine. System Restore will affect Windows system files, programs, and registry settings only.

Hope this helps.

None of those worked, I think it might be a hard drive problem.

Hi,

As none of those troubelshooting steps worked, I would suggest you to run the Hardware Diagnostics and check for any error code.

If the Hardware Diagnostics pass, then try updating the system BIOS if it’s not updated.

[Unsolved] System stuttering while playing games/movies Please Help

Hello all, I posted a while ago about this same issue and I have not been able to fix it. Whenever I play movies (on Netflix/YouTube/Movie Files) or games, my computer randomly stutters. The stutters effect video and audio and the computer freezes for about a second or two.

Here are my specs:

Mobo: Asus P8p67 Deluxe
GPU: Asus ENGTX 570 (first version)
CPU: Intel i7 2600k @ 3.4 Ghz
Ram: 8 GB Corsair Vengeance 1600 mhz
HDD: WD 10EALX-089BA0


Here is a youtube video I posted of the problem Im having.



Originally I thought it might be a driver problem, but I have been on the Asus website, Nvidia, and Intel, and all my drivers are up to date.

Then I thought it might be a problem with using Carbonite, Dropbox, and Google Drive constantly reading and writing to the HDD, but even when I disabled them it was still happening.

Im not really sure what to do please help!

SO you are using built-in pc GPU . . . .( i m sure its not overclocked )
I have this problem when i overclock too much .............
Try previous version of the drivers sometimes new driver have bugs also ........... Check the gpu for overheating as well............
