Experiencing sound stuttering, mouse trails & screen freezing in Games (Rome - Total War & Everquest (Platinum)). I have not had the same experience in Doom3, which runs perfectly. I am also able to run WMP and any audio from CD without issue.

I have attempted to run the first two games on the lowest settings with no improvement. I have reinstalled RTW twice and also applied the patch. I have also updated all of my drivers (sound & display). DirectX: 4.09.00.0904 (DirectX 9.0c).

This is very frustrating, new fully capable machine not being able to play these games.

Any ideas other than the above would be appreciated. Thanks.
