Overclocking causes Audio to excelerate ??

[bladehunter]

I'v notice that when OCing my P4 2.4C to a 250 FSB, whith a 5:4 mem divider, with locked APG/PCI , the system runs fine, but while gaming, the audio during cut scences screws up, this is on multiple games, saw this happening on both a 875P board and 865 board. And the on board audio and audigy. Basicly the characters during in game cut scences speech is accelerated so they say things way before there supposed to or overlap. Is this normal? Is there anyway to fix it?

This problem does not occur do to overclocking. It might be that your audio drivers are old so I would update them and see what happens. If you still experience problems than you could try and reset CMOS ram so that your bios will have defult settings and if it doesnt work than you know that it is not from overclocking. Cant think of anything else you might try.

I have all the latest drivers and the audio is fine when I run the system without any kind of overclocking, hmm guess I'll continue to research this, maybe I'll try to turn the hardwear acceleration on the audio down a notch....

Maybe the PCI lock is not working. OC it and run Sisoft Sandra (IIRC it will report your PCI "speed").

Ok, I'll look to comfirm the PCI clk speed.....
