This has been happening for over a year already but it's really getting worse..
I'm going to put a video (not me) that perfectly describes the sound my laptop creates:
[video="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zkHU9Z4_4-A"][/video]
The one in the video is a short stutter, mine goes on for 5-7 seconds and happens randomly not to mention almost every 30 minutes. And it does not only happen with youtube videos but while playing music, watching a movie that I have in my hard drive. It's not a network problem, I believe it's really the laptop causing the problem.
I also checked my drivers and all are up to date. Can't seem to figure out what is wrong. It's also not an OS problem since last year I have Windows 7 and now I have 8 and I encountered this dilemma in both operating systems.
Do you guys know what could be the cause of the problem? Is it because of a faulty hard drive?
(Also if this is in the wrong section, I apologize.. I don't know where to put it)
Thank you for your answers!
Oh, and here are my laptop specs:
Processor: AMD Athlon II Dual-Core Mobile P360 (2.3 GHz, 1 MB L2 cache)
RAM: 6GB (2GB originally, then added 4GB)
Hard Drive: 500 GB 5400 rpm SATA II
Graphics: AMD Mobility Radeon HD 4250
I am looking for an upgrade right now but I need to hold on to this for at least another 5 months.
Thanks guys!
