Hey guys,
one of my friends (ok a friend of a friend) upgraded his HP by buying a new mobo and cpu. He got the ECS K7S5a with a 800mHz duron. Everything else is original form the HP. The previous HP model is the 4563Z. His problem is that with the new mobo and cpu, whenever his cpu processes a good dela of data, the sounds gets garbled. Otherwise, it runs fine he says. The onboard sound is disabled on the ECS board. The sounds card hes using is the rockwell combo modem/sound card, which the hp site says uses the ac97 codec. Any suggestions? Im thinkin the cpu doesnt process the sound codec when it under heavy usage, or the hard drive is too slow. The HP site only specifies that its a 10.2 GB hd. Anyway, any suggestions would b much appreciated.
thanks
RYAN
