Title: Sound slows down?
Post by: jink on August 18, 2007, 03:12:46 PM

Hello! This is my first post here, which is probably apparent from my post count. :)

I've been having this problem for weeks now, and can't find a way to solve it.

I am using an HP Pavilion DV6000, Windows XP, (if additional information is required please tell me :) ) and the problem is that when I am watching videos, or listening to music, after a minute or so (mostly shorter) the sound starts to slow down - it becomes sluggish and in slow-motion. ???

Please help.
Thanks!

does the sound not match up with the picture? like you see dog bark...2 seconds pass......you hear it?

Are u watching a DVD? a video clip? whats running in the background (in terms of processes) when you are doing that?

Go to Start>run and type msconfig then go to startup tab and uncheck anything that u dont want to start at every bootup. Make sure also that when ur watching a video, that u dont have anything else running that demands alot of cpu power. When did u notice this happening btw?
