Sound stutters when wireless network is enabled.

[Dream Operator]

All was well with my sound until I added a DLink USB 802.11N wireless adapter. Now I get random stutters in my audio. Only lasts about two seconds, but happens every few minutes. The issue occurs in both Vista and XP. I tried switching from my Audigy to my Maudio card, issue happens with either sound card. Once I disable the wireless network, issue goes away. Any ideas?

Had this a LONG time ago on a kt133 board. Fixed by raising PCI latency timer to 128.

Hmmm.... I could see it being a PCI issue. I'm a little too well of right now, but I'll try it soon and post my results. Thanks!

Is that referring to changing the audio latency within the sound card driver control panel? If so, that did not work. If not, could someone explain?

It would be PCI latency within the system BIOS that you would have to change.
