Hi guys

The last time I asked for you all opinion about the problem I faced:

CPU usage too high and spike, not in regular form. Some of you suggested that my computer had malwares infection. Later, I did a clean installation and the problem still coming back.

The most obvious problem is with the sound cracking or delaying in playback song or movies. I need to restart the computer but then the same problem comes back few hours later. I wonder is my sound card failure or the processor's problem?

My computer spec:

Asus P5GCMX
4 GB DDR2 800 MHz
EAH 4670 512 MB
Cooler Master 460w True Power

Hope you guys can help me in this!
Thank you so much!
 
On older computers onboard sound won't keep up with todays audio especially
during video playback.
It's a combination of slow cpu ,terrible onboard sound and codecs

buy a 35$ sound card or better yet buy a new system
