Speech/audio problem

[Sparatan117]

Ok, haven't had hardly any problems with Windows 7 and i love it. I can't stand going back to vista. I have one problem though. Every time i open up Team Speak, Ventrillo, or Xfire the screen freezes for about 45 seconds and then it lets go and lets me continue on. then if i mess with settings it freezes again then lets go and so on and so forth for closing and yada yada. I tried today to run Ventrilo while playing Left 4 dead. When i entered the game I lost all my friends in Vent and could barely hear them. What gives is it an audio driver or what?

Btw i have a:
ASUS P6T Delux mobo
Core i7
ATI 4850

just incase that helps any

I am having problems with xfire and using voice chat, I have tried everything suggested such as firewall settings and unninstalling antivirus etc etc and I am beggining to beleive this is a problem with UAC, not something cureable by turning it on off or halfway

could this be related to your issues ??

 

[Sparatan117]

yeah sounds exactly like it only mine laggs and freezes when i change settings. not to mention i have to wait 2 minutes everytime i boot up. well any program that uses speech freezes when it starts

i did however read somewhere that if you disable direct input to xfire it might help

bump btw i installed my standard bios sound software, no change, installed Realtek vista drivers for ac97, no change. Xfire still freezes.

 

[Sparatan117]

Alright well this is aggravating the piss out of me. Would someone else Please help me out who has Windows 7 installed and install Ventrilo, Teamspeak, or Xfire and see if they get the same results?

 

[Sparatan117]

haha bump it all, I've given up all thoughts on what it could be. maybe its a bad sector in my hard drive. at any rate what im going to do is reformat my hard drive and just reinstall Windows 7 clean. I'll let everyone know how its goes.

 

[Sparatan117]

well whatever it was its no longer here. I started Ventrilo without any problems.

Was suppose to jump-in but you've already resolved it, glad it worked out for you man

 

[Sparatan117]

Hah no big man, guess i'll never know what it was. I'll gladly stick around and help out with anyone who needs a hand though.

Hi all,
I came upon this thread while trying to solve another problem.

anywho, the issue the OP was having is a feature on windows 7.
in the sounds control panel, there is a communications tab, where there is a drop down box that lowers the volume of sounds when voice communications programs, default is to lower to 80%, set it to none.

at least thats what it sounds like to me...

That will solve the sound turning down, but the other issues are not related.
