Youtube and iTunes sound problem.

[callmeSly]

I am using a Win 7 Home Basic 64-bit and every time I play videos on youtube and itunes there's always a "disturbing sound/jumping" (like when your audio cds are full of scratches) and sometimes the sound suddenly disappears when I'm playing videos on youtube.

But when every time I change my OS into Win 7 32-bit, I'm not having any problems

I have a 4gb of ram and wants to maximize it, if I use a 32-bit, I only get 3gb usable ram. But when I use a 64-bit, I get 3.50gb usable ram. So, I really need to use a 64-bit to get the most out of my ram.

Any help will be appreciated.

Thanks!!!

Hello and welcome to the forums, callmeSly!

Firstly, can you please fill in the rest of your system specs in the My system specs section of your profile by following this tutorial before we proceed?

Thanks in advance!

It says that I need to install .NET Framework but when I'm trying to install it there's a pop-up message that says You must use "Turn Windows features on or off" in the control panel......

how would i do this?

 

[solarmystic]

Press start orb ---> type windows features --> enter --> You're now in the Windows Features Box



Select the component you have been asked to turn on in this box by ticking the checkbox next to the name... which is Microsoft .NET 3.5?

EDIT:- It's rather odd that you have been asked to install .NET Framework on your Windows 7 64 bit system.. AFAIK Windows 7 comes with all the .NET Frameworks except for .NET Framework 4 which is not required for the program in that tutorial.

 

[callmeSly]

the one that you're trying to make me install needs .net framework 4.

 

[callmeSly]

mate, so what now? i already ran the program. what do i do?

 

[solarmystic]

Ah okay you need to install .NET Framework 4 to run the SystemInfo.exe in the tutorial i linked you?

Or have you already installed .NET Framework 4 already?

Here's a link for the installer from Microsoft...

You shouldn't have to mess around with the Program Features...

 

[callmeSly]

are you still there? what do i do next?

 

[callmeSly]

i already installed .net framework 4. i am now filling up the fields in the forums. i guess i have to save the changes, right?

 

[solarmystic]

Yes. That's correct, sorry for the delay.

 

[callmeSly]

it's okay. i don't mind. i'm done filling up the fields.

 

[solarmystic]

EDIT: Ignore what i said, i forgot that your system is self built.

Now we can move on to your issues.

Do you have issues playing other videos or music on alternative media players like VLC and Media Player Classic Home Cinema?

[callmeSly]

i went to dxdiag to see the system manufacturer but it says "to be filled by o.e.m"

 

[callmeSly]

you're referring to the mother board, right? it's Emaxx.

 

[solarmystic]

Refer to my previous post asking about alternative video players and other video files.

Do you have problems with the audio in other types of videos and music files?

 

[callmeSly]

i still have to find out. i haven't tested it yet.

 

[solarmystic]

i still have to find out. i haven't tested it yet.

Please do, I ask because I want to exclude a few possible scenarios..

I will be here to wait as you test it out... No worries...

 

[callmeSly]

yes, i am having trouble with the audio too in VLC.

 

[solarmystic]

Okay, what about music files like mp3s?

 

[callmeSly]

itunes is my default player for mp3s. but i'm having trouble too using win media player.
