Hi all,

I recently purchased a Dell Inspiron 6400 Laptop, used. After putting on some music, I noticed that the sound stutters every now and again for about 5 seconds. It's incredibly irritating! I've had a look around, and whilst I've seen other people with similar problems, I haven't yet found a solution to them.

My specs are as follows:
Intel Core Duo Processor @ 1.66ghz.
2gb Ram
160 Hard Drive
Sigmatel Sound Card

The laptop is also running Windows Vista Business. From what I've seen, there's a strong possibility that Vista is causing the problem. Some have mentioned that it could be the wifi, but I don't know how or why, and switching that off every time I wanna listen to music is not gonna happen.

Any help would be great, thanks. Also, please ask for more info if you need it.

hmm... this is not my area of expertise, someone will be along shortly to help you out with your problem..

Hi there, have you tried re installing your sound card drivers?
