My system:
athlon tbird 800
asus a7v mobo
512 megs crucial pc 133
system drive: 80 gig 8 meg cache wd
extra drives: 60 and 80 gig ata 133 maxtors
Geforce 2 mx
Soundblaster Live Value
My problem:
When I play movies (divx or avi) and mp3s, there will be occasional ...hiccups, where the image (if there is one) stops and the sound just goes "blrrrrrrr" as if it were repeating the last .1 seconds over.. this happens most frequently with movies and mp3..
I would like to note that on my old drive (ibm 30 gig ata 100) that I had no such divx audio/mp3 hiccuping. It was only after I took out the ibm (it died) and reinstalled all my system files and such on the new 80 giger that this happened. The hiccuping is infrequent but very annoying. Usually happens in the first few seconds of play and then randomly throughout. It not to the point that its unbearable, but I'd like to listen to my mp3s and hear my divx stuff without all the hiccups.
Of course I have SP1 installed and I've narrowed out the sb audio drivers as I tried using both the newer and older sb live audio drivers, so its neither of those. All my wiring is correct and I've went back in and reseated all my peripherals and made sure all my cables are in place correctly. I even reformatted and reinstalled to of no avail. My audio codecs are exactly the same ones I used on the old drive. This problem baffles me and all my friends. If anyone has experienced this problem also or have any ideas on how to fix it I would be greatly indebted. Thanks.
