High DPC Latency, causing Audio STUTTERING after a couple hours uptime
My problem is when I am watching flash videos, specifically YouTube and Twitch.TV, my sound stutters when opening another tab or just when simply watching the video and not doing anything else. Things like games and iTunes DO NOT stutter.
A good thing but sort of bad thing for troubleshooting is that the stuttering/popping of sound starts after a good 10 hours to a day of up time but DPC latency spikes are almost always there after a couple hours.
Its definitely not my computer specs/temps, nor my internet speed.
I am pretty sure my drivers are also up to date. Im on the latest BETA AMD GPU drivers (Note: I still had problems with the latest STABLE drivers) Everything in device manager is installed. I ran the intel update utility, install AISuite with all the drivers and grabbed the latest off of asus.com, and I also ran a driver upgrade program and upgrade 4 drivers in there and still nothing.
Ive tried disabling various different flashes in chrome://plugins aswell as updating flash, chrome etc.
I have disable Intel cpu throttling in bios and disabled in in power management. Ive also updated my bios to the latest as well as sound drivers.
I have also disabled all enhancements under audio device and I have tried ,to make sure its not speakers, playing sound through my monitors built in speakers and I have the same problem.
I did find people that had problems with AISuite and Avast antivirus which are programs I have and run.
I found out eventually its a problem related with DPC latency and have found various guides on how to fix it, but I am truly confused. I tried this guide but I get stuck at part 2 where it says: Finally type this line and press Enter: xperf %userprofile%\Desktop\trace.etl I tried using xperfview %userprofile%\Desktop\trace.etl and C:\Users\Admin\Desktop>WPA %userprofile%\Desktop\trace.etl which are both alternative suggestions at the end of the post but those didnt work either and I get the same error. I couldn't find any good tutorial for LatencyMon and I have no idea what else to do.
I built a good PC with some expensive hardware and all I wanted for it was to work. I can post logs, startup programs, my installed programs, device manager drivers,taskbar running programs, taskmanager running programs (pic1, pic2) (some dupes), whatever you guys need to help me with this problem just post and ask for it. Thanks alot everyone!!!
