I'm experiencing very bad sound stutters & puses when flying in FSX. They last for 1-3 sec & are very severe when landing & you hear the RA call-outs 30, 20, 10....makes smooth landings impossible, but they also are present at altitude. They are worst when flying an heavy addon like PMDG NGX w Fs2crew & Coolsky DC-9. The thing is when I press Q & mute the sound the stutters are gone &  everything is smooth.

It started 3 weeks ago since then I have done:

-an complete computer system reinstall with fresh FSX install.

-updated all drivers, added newest Realtek HD Audio driver from their's site.

-tried different Nvida drivers & all kinds of pc system & sound setups, like sound through speakers vs headset, downgrading sound quality, checked HD for errors, turning off/on services in msconfig  etc.

-deleted fx_skidmark.fx from effects

-called Asus support several times & searched the net for solutions.

None of the above has helped I'm out of ideas?

 

Any help highly appreciated:) 

 

My system: Asus G73JW-TY190V - i5 460M (Gaming laptop)/ 4GB / 500GB / 17" TFT / Nvida GF GTX 460M /Win7 H.

Sound: Built in Stereo speakers , Microphone, Subwoofer, Realtek HD Audio.

Has to be an issue with your Windows system sound.  In the sound setup, click on the Speaker icon and configure.  It makes sense that the stutters go away when you press Q and mute the sound.  Also go into your device manager and make sure the Sound is properly installed.

 

Best regards,

I've done that what you suggested Jim, still no luck :(

I am having this problem as well.  Did you come up with a solution?
