Some days ago I suddenly experienced this weird problem. My computer just slows down and everything lags as hell (Sound, Programs, OS and whatnot).
I have the latest drivers for everything (Triple checked everything. My computer is up to date.), and I know for a fact that my graphics card and CPU can handle these games (I'm getting the exact same problem with Minecraft, Black Ops and Modern Warfare).
Re-formating did not work, de-fragmenting did not work, setting all settings to lowest did not work and my virtual memory is 3x more than recommended.
Virus scan returned 0 viruses and 0 system faults.
It happens more often when I run other programs that uses the audiodg.exe process like Spotify and Skype, and one time when I got this while running Minecraft and Spotify, I actually saw Spotify close and re-open after 1-2 minutes of slow motion...
When the problem occurs, the sound becomes garbled (I.E if you hear a song it goes like "bom bom bom", for me it's like "bbbboooommmm bbbboooommmm bbbboooommmm"), the screen freezes, Skype stops the call, I get disconnected from servers and Spotify closes and re-opens.
So this is a list over stuff that didn't work:
- Re-formating
- Updating EVERYTHING
- Increasing Virtual Memory
- Re-installing games
- De-fragmenting
- Virus scan (No viruses / System faults)
Any suggestions?
