Sound issues driving me crazy
Ok i know there is numerous threads about this but its getting to me now (im not very computer literate), ive tryed so many different things to try and fix this but its just not happening if i find something and think ive fixed it, 24 hours later it returns i really need somebodys help in trying to solve this as its driving me insane
The problem is to do with DPC Latency, ive downloaded the tool and i run it 100% of the time im on my pc to monitor the issue and see if anything i do fixs it, my typical DPC latency when i have no problems is anywhere between 90 and 100 however, when the problem starts it shoots to over 20000 here is a picture of when the problem hits

As you can see, it just skyrockets, now this red latency can last anywhere between 30 seconds and 30 minutes before returning back to normal green, it happens randomly more so when im playing games (call of duty modern warfare 2 for example) it also makes the game im playing stutter like i have 1 FPS, when it returns back to green my sound issue is gone and my game runs perfectly
As i said, im not the best with computers so disabling devices and stuff is new to me and im not sure which ones are safe to disable and which are not (except for System and Computer) i have the latest graphics and sound drivers and ive even tryed the default win7 ones and they changed nothing
This is beyond me whats causing it but its got to the point where i simply cannot put up with it anymore and i need to find a fix any help you guys can give me would be greatly appreciated
