Nilank, your English is just fine, if it wasn't for your signature I wouldn't know that English wasn't your first language.
Now about the 20-50 thing, when I wrote that I meant that 20-50% is the normal range for CPU usage on my machine. For example, right now with Chrome, Skype, Yahoo Messenger, Peerblock, and all that jazz going my CPU is between 16% and 45% at the high end.
The Disable All Enhancements bit? Yep, did that, still there! Hopefully we're getting somewhere though!
press start key, type "msconfig" hit enter, go to "services", select hide all microsoft services, untill only 3rd party apps and add ons show, then click disable all hit enter, "restart" your computer, twice if you have to, then run your audio program and see if it still stutters. if it doesnt, then your problem is in your add ons and 3rd party apps, your welcome!11
Looked around my non-Microsoft and all checked out as legitimate services...This is the major confusion point: The audio drivers haven't changed, and I haven't installed/removed any software recently that could have caused the stuttering. My computer just up and decided to have a stuttering problem.
Didn't work.
So, VLC is in it's vanilla form, Google Chrome only uses Adblock and Flashblock. IE is vanilla. PC itself only uses Rainmeter. All of the stuff I mentioned was installed long ago. I'm starting to wonder if it's something wrong with the sound card itself (from the laptop getting dropped maybe) and its just starting to manifest now.
So...Anyone else got anything?
Hi I had this problem after installing a Sound recorder program. Removing didn't solve the problem. System restore did. I undid the system restore and the stutter game back.
I then looked across various forums to no avail. I then looked at the program more closely. It set the sound output to digital (why?).
I then opened Control Panel and opened up Realtek HD AudioManager.
I turned off the speaker under the tab Digital Output ( just click on the speaker it toggles on or off). This fixed the stuttering and popping. I went back in and also turned off Digital Output (Optical) just in case, as I don't use it.
Hope this helps

I realize this is an old thread but after searching online the stuttering problems still are prevalent and there are still many people looking for resolutions. I just did a fresh install of Win 7 Pro and experienced the constant stuttering problem. I traced it to a sound problem but ended up realizing it was a USB problem regarding my USB headset and the VIA audio Mixer. I removed the USB controllers relating to the headset and the VIA audio mixer in the Hardware Manager and when Windows found them again a repair was performed automatically which in turn fixed all the stuttering problems. Now everything is smooth as butter. I am able to redirect the VIA sound from the mixer to the USB headset as well. If you have stuttering problems on Windows 7 you might want to look at the USB controllers.
