hello,
I'm experiencing intermittant sound; it seems to pause for a fraction of a second. There doesn't seems to be anything specific that causes it; the CPU usage may be low, it could be sound from any source, etc. It happens all the time.

I'm using realtek AC97 audio, and all drivers are up to date.

Furthermore, it seems to all happen just after I flashed the BIOS, could this have anything to do with it?

Thanks for your help and time, please let me know if there's more you need to know.

Hi, IF you are using simple amplified speakers the wrong AC adaptor, too little current and/or voltage can cause such a symptom.

Good Luck, Jim
