video / sound stops

czkkzc · 03-11-2008, 08:34 PM

Hi, hope someone can help me...

Im having problems watching videos and listening to music on my pc. Whether its online or stored on the computer, sound stops, and if im watching a video that will pause too. Sometimes it will get working again but not always. It feels like a resource issue but I dont know much and could be completely wrong!

I dont know where to start to resolve this and its been happening for a while. Im running XP.

Any help is appreciated

on board video or outboard? soundcard? raid setup (some controller cards caused this issue)? did it always do this or just recently?

He is trying to help you. But he needs this information to help you out. So if you can get a hold of your Uncle who built the PC and get as much info as you can regarding the questions. After Eric gets the info he will most certainly try to help you out. He is one of best Audio guys i know.

I realise that, I only asked where to get the info... I didnt mean for the post to sound rude or anything, sorry if it did. I will try to locate the documentation. Thanks for the help
