Q: im having some problems with sound in xp . If I fairly routine tasks (such as opening the right click menu in Windows Explorer), my audio playback from Winamp (and probably other things but I havent had anything else playing sound when it happens) stops for a half second or so . I also get some clicks . and POPs and im sure theyre not the mp3 itself . Ive got the latest bios via 4in1, igniter, and the sb drivers. windows updates, etc. Ive also tried changing the sound in winamp a lot . stage one abit kt7a . life has its own IRQ and sharing with isnt everything . detailed specifications here (http://bitchin.d-7.net/desk.php?f=pspec.php) . ive tried changing settings and the like winamp but it does help . i dont have anything else running and using the CPU or something . usually only one or two words, mIRC, ICQ, MSN and Winamp . this is really annoying so id appreciate any help .

Re:This might sound strange, but if your mouse cord runs between your speakers and monitor, the signal can sometimes cause pops and clicks (but I doubt stops).

Re:hm ;/ nothing helpful there.. the first one suggests running the card in single dma mode, which doesnt seem to be applicable for xp .. and the xp sound troubleshooter doesnt have anything useful either- sigh-

Re:There is a fair amount of information about this kind of problem in Microsoft's Knowledgebase. You might want to try the Microsoft Sound Troubleshooter (http://support.microsoft.com/Support/PersonalUser/Content/Sound/default.asp) or this Knowledgebase article about fixing sound problems (http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;Q263047).

Re:by 'not running any programs' i meant nothing extraordinary like seti or something that would eat up the cpu and possibly cause this kind of thing. basically theres next to no cpu usage or disk activity, so im at a complete loss as to why this happens ..

Re:is the volume level on your computer turned down while the level on your speakers turned up? also you said that you aren't running programs when this happens but you are, are you or aren't you! when I would run programs and mp3s at the same time it used to skip while it was opening the other program, my solution: I got a gtxp and use hardware mp3 acceleration! (sb live probably has it)
