Hey everyone! Thanks for taking time to read through this. I've been suffering with a laptop stutter for at least 7 months and have scoured the internet for research.

I finally figured out the root of the issue. It has to do with AMD and fTPM conflicting, thus causing a consistent gaming stutter happening about every other minute. It's kinda funny how it makes me play. Nevertheless, I would like to resolve it lol.

I do not find the fTPM function on my UEFI BIOS (see below for info on it).
BIOS Version/Date:
American Megatrends International, LLC. G513QY.331, 2/24/2023

Does anyone know where to find it? I'll post screenshots for reference in this Google Doc link. Thanks again everyone! I tried multiple methods which Ill list below so as to avoid complicating this forum. If it happens, ah well haha.

1. In Powershell, i disabled TPM Auto Provisioning with this command thinking it'd open up settings to shut off TPM:
Disable-Tpmautoprovisioning
Turns out, no new settings were open and after testing, the game would still stutter with this. Thus, I reenabled it.

2. Turned off Secure Boot in BIOS menu to test.
Turns out, no difference in game stutter. So I knew TPM was not somehow involved with that option.

3. I ran dialogue box (Windows + R) and typed in tpm.msc to attempt to disable it.
Turns out, there was no disable option. Only clear, and refresh. Even so, just to test it, after testing, the stutter remained.
 
Try a clean boot and see if it changes anything - make sure to read instructions and make sure NOT to disable any microsoft services or windows won't load right - https://support.microsoft.com/en-au/help/929135/how-to-perform-a-clean-boot-in-windows
It doesn’t delete anything, it just stops non Microsoft programs running with start. Easy to reverse.
if clean boot fixes it, it shows its likely a startup program. You should, over a number of startups. restart the programs you stopped to isolate the one that is to blame.

tell us if its a driver or a program

Bios might show you that on 1st screen. Maybe.

I actually experimented with that yesterday thanks to @helpstar. It still did the stutter unfortunately.
 
That tells us its either drivers or hardware... linux working doesn't really prove its not a hardware problem, linux puts less stress on hardware compared to what windows can.

Does it stutter in safe mode?
go to settings/system/recovery
next to Advanced Startup, click restart now
  1. choose troubleshoot
  2. choose advanced
  3. choose startup settings
  4. click the restart button
  5. choose a safe mode (it doesn't matter which) by using number associated with it.
  6. Pc will restart and load safe mode
no stutters there could mean its drivers, or still hardware. I am assuming its drivers for now.
 
G'morning.

So after investigating, I found out there was a chance I didn't have the most up to date chipset software. So I went to find it and download it.

The next gaming session was perfect.

However, after turning my laptop off and coming back to it later, I found that there was a stutter here and there. I was wondering if maybe it just happened to be wifi issues making it seem like a stutter. But will test again soon.
 
After 15m, it says "conclusion: ur sytem appears to be having trouble handling real-time audio and other tasks. Ur likely to experience buffer underruns appearing as drop outs clicks or pops. One or more DPC routines that belong to a driver running in ur system appear to be executing for too long. One problem may be related to power management, disable CPU throttling settings in Control Panel and BIOS Setup. Check for BIOS updates."
 
i thought it might show that, what does the report show? I think if you scroll down it shows more info

might want to take some screenshots and upload to an image sharing website and show link here.

some of these might help
 
3rd party driver updaters can install the wrong drivers so be careful what it suggests. If you have to use it, maybe show screenshot of its suggestions and I can check what they are.

as for the picture, the 2 processes mentioned are pretty normal. I often see directx as top user.

Did you look at my video??

next time you run it, look on the stats and drivers tab, as its where more details show.

g'morning! thanks for keeping up with me. Yes, ur video was very much insightful. I used the app u told me about as the measuring stick to see if its stats improved. Since I tested it after work yesterday, I had already ran all its suggested downloads. Otherwise, Id waited had i seen ur message this morning.

Nevertheless, it did improve all the stats on LatencyMon but the stutter still happened.
 
Here is the report text from just now for the Driver's section

Hard pagefaults are events that get triggered by making use of virtual memory that is not resident in RAM but backed by a memory mapped file on disk. The process of resolving the hard pagefault requires reading in the memory from disk while the process is interrupted and blocked from execution.

NOTE: some processes were hit by hard pagefaults. If these were programs producing audio, they are likely to interrupt the audio stream resulting in dropouts, clicks and pops. Check the Processes tab to see which programs were hit.

try running it and only show a report after it shows a red message in the conclusion

as you see, Wdf01000.sys - Kernel Mode Driver Framework Runtime, Microsoft Corporation & dxgkrnl.sys - DirectX Graphics Kernel, Microsoft Corporation being the top 2 mentioned is fairly normal.

After you get a bad report, you need to look on the driver tab as it will show more than just the top one. screenshot of it will help perhaps.
 
g'morning! thanks for keeping up with me. Yes, ur video was very much insightful. I used the app u told me about as the measuring stick to see if its stats improved. Since I tested it after work yesterday, I had already ran all its suggested downloads. Otherwise, Id waited had i seen ur message this morning.

Nevertheless, it did improve all the stats on LatencyMon but the stutter still happened.
i should have read this first.

did you ever try safe mode? does it stutter there? does it only stutter in game as you can't really play any in safe mode.
 
clean boot just runs windows without 3rd party apps
Safe mode runs windows without any drivers. And 3rd party apps... its a way to see if the stutter is a driver. If it still happens in safe mode, its likely hardware.

but you said it works okay in linux?
 
sorry, got you mixed up with someone else.

Does it only happen in games? If so, is it any game or a specific one? if it happens outside games, running in safe mode could tell us something. the lack of drivers in there means games just don't work all that well.
