Hello,
So for a few weeks I have been experiencing an issue where audio coming from my computer is severely distorted. The only way I can describe it is as if someone was playing the sound underwater. I have tried many 'fixes' found on the internet including:
One thing in particular I have noticed in regards to this situation, is that at random intervals, the sound will be 'normal' for a few minutes, and then return to the garbled state it is usually in for anywhere from half an hour to one hour.
If anyone can identify the problem and/or offer potential fixes, it would be gladly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

■ Making sure everything inside the computer is seated properly
■ Using Realtek HD audio manager
■ Using Windows troubleshoot tool
■ Contacting Windows support
■ Making sure I have the right codecs
■ Running several virus scans
■ Changing settings in playback options
■ Disabling CPU Throttling
■ Changing power plans to full performance
