Videos keep stuttering/freezing no matter what media player used
So, I've had Windows 7 on my HP ENVY dv6-7213nr Notebook PC for two months or so now. Everything was fine (once I went through the hell that was finding the correct driver for the wireless) until about a week or so. I've tried KMPlayer and MPC-HC in playing videos, and it will randomly start freezing. The freezing comes and goes, hence the stuttering, and can happen from 5 minutes in to 20 minutes in, completely randomly. Those are just the times I've noticed. It does not freeze the whole computer, just what I'm watching. It also does it no matter *what* I am watching, I've tried seven different movies and ten different shows. I can't seem to go longer than 20 minutes before it starts doing it.
I have my laptop fully updated. I ran two virus scans, one was at boot level, as well as running a Malware scan. I tried disabling all accelerators (as one website claimed worked), and I tried disabling Windows Media Player and Windows Media Center (as another one claimed). I made sure I had the correct audio drivers, I uninstalled CCCP (my codec pack) and reinstalled it, and I made sure I had the correct graphics driver. Nothing that I can think of will fix it. Any ideas?
