This is getting really annoying. Basically what happens is randomly I open a game, or some program that puts load on the CPU, my microphone input gets completely jacked.
It sounds like there is massive static in it or choppiness. People will either call me fanman or robotman. It's just really terrible. This doesn't happen everytime, it only happens sometimes. Sometimes one restart will do it, sometimes multiple restarts are needed. I can not recall ever having this problem with Windows XP, only with Vista 64. This does not happen just online either, I used a recorder for windows and played it back with the same result. Once I tested it and the mic playback was perfect then I opened up Ventrilo and boom, super staticy voice. Ventrilo is not even a program that takes up that much CPU, perhaps it is any program that tries to access the sound hardware? I don't know.
Any help on this? This is really annoying. I am using an Audigy 2 ZS soundcard.
