Hello. I am having a issue. When watching videos on youtube or google video or any video flash player. The audio will start to crack and pop. Little at first then gets worst and worst. It gets even more worst when you change the resolution high. Here is the weird thing. The crack and pops are gone when you maximize the video to full screen. This sometimes happens in Windows Media Player as well. Sometimes when editing in Sony Vegas Pro 11. I will get random popping noises. And audio will not be playing.

This happens on 3 different headsets that I use. 2 of which are 3.5m jack plugs and another pair is USB. The USB headset uses it's own audio drives. It's my steelseries headset.

I have a Realtek HD Audio sound device that is part of the motherboard. It is up to date.
I have tried using Firefox, google chrome, internet explorer, all three didn't work.

All my drives are up to date.

Anyone know what I should do? Is it a codec problem?
 
OK, have u heard of driver conflicting with other drivers? It could work fine, but if u have a problem, it is linked to the driver conflict, since u have different chip set or different parts and same looking parts with different revision number(different driver)

Similar issue.
