gateway lx6810 video/sound problems
this was a vista64 with a free upgrade to win7-64 from gateway. I believe soundcard is integrated in motherboard (nvidia). Avermedia tuner. I did all driver upgrades and even a bios upgrade for win7 but i have a problem i had even with vista64 but much worse. Their overseas helpdesk wasnt much help when I tried to fix the vista problem so i lived with it. But now recordings are unwatchable most times.
On DVR recordings using MEDIA CENTER the audio becomes corrupted and gets so bad that it eventually effects the video.
This problem will happen even when NOTrecording. It seems to happen after computer has been on for roughly 3hrs. I will be watching live tv (analog cable) and sound gets choppy. If I dont do a restart, the video will eventually become pixelated complete with freezing. A restart seems to refresh everything.
Most infuriating is recording something then playing it back and having to delete it becuse it is practically gibberish with long freezes in the pixelated video and trashed sound.
I have simple altec lansing 5.1 speakers hooked up and had a hard time with that when my audio card setup and the media center audio setup both were TELLING me how many speakers I have.
Can someone send an AV guy to my house?
