For the past year or so my system would pause , just the visuals as in video , but not the audio..
This would happen when playing some of my games but not all of them..
Like on train sim world for example , the world around me would stop for a second every 2 seconds and when watching twitch on my second monitor at the same time that stream would pause also but just like the game I was playing the audio would be uninterrupted..
I installed train sim world and a few others that would this issue would happen and the issue returned..
I decided to open task manager and made it full screen on my second monitor too see if anything showed up, but I didnt notice anything out of the usual...
But as the task manager was full screen the pauses werent as often , sometime the games were smooth...
I decided to close my browser, google chrome , and the pauses went away , maybe its an extension ?
I installed firefox and ran that instead but the pausing returned when I played the games, but went away when I closed firefox....
I have played all these games in the past a lot without problem but maybe the last year or so this has been happening, but the game play great without a browser open.
I like to watch streams as I play and was wondering if someone could help maybe work out how to have games and browser/stream open at the same time...
Thanks for any help
