Hi guy's,

Ok heres my problem: When gaming mostly skyrim and WOT i get weird cracking audio and a lower frame rate it seems to be for about a few minutes then stops for a while before returning(the longer i play the less it seems to occur :huh:). My first thoughts where either a bad driver or a conflict somewhere so i have tried using an older driver and removeing sound blaster cinima as i have realtech audio installed also but to no avail. some searching on the net ended up with me looking at latency that shows up high when opening a youtube video or gaming but are good at idle or playing mp3's, the two culprits seem to be dxgkrnl.sys and nvlddmkm.sys images will be below (not sure if i attached them correctly?). I used msi live update 5 and navidias web site to update drivers. Please say if you need more info.

 

here are my pc's specs:

i7-4770k

8GB ram

msi Z87-GD65

N780 TF 3GD5/OC (gtx 780)

windows 7 X64

 

 

 

Thankyou in advance.

If nvlddmkm.sys is definitely causing an issue, uninstall your nvidia drivers and reinstall them, making sure to untick the option to install hd audio drivers

Well you sir need a gold star that seems to have solved my problems just rolling back was obviously not enough to fix it.

will post again if it comes back in the future. thanks. now if i can just find that cable for my camara i can upload the pics of my build that i have been meaning to do for about 2 months.
