Tried the new drivers, they would not install, kept getting driver has failed errors in windows then got a black screen, even on a reboot they failed and had to restore a backup to get comp to boot.

Cheers mate, seemed to have worked great, watching music clips and listening to songs without stuttering!

Thanks will try that later.

Hey guys this is really annoying me, whenever I am playing any video and/or audio file with any browser open and loading pages the audio stutters extremely badly, I use Chrome but also does it in Cyberfox, the players I have tried are VLC, Media Player Classic, Windows Media Player, Foobar 2000...

Cheers will do that.

Hey guys I need to find a PCI-Express to SATA III Card 2Port card but my mobo a Z77MX-D3H has only 1 PCIEX1 slot which is covered by my GPU, so I have only a PCIEX4 & 8 slot free. Does anyone know whether a sata expansion card is made for the GPU slots?

I have used them but they did not find anything. It only happens every now and again, maybe twice a day.

I also got 7, all installed fine, and yes no annoying win 10 crud!

Can't seem to find an answer to my question - Does the firmware update mean I have to reinstall windows? I have done firmware updates on other devices in the past, but not on a "boot" device, so just need an answer. Edit: According to samsung it does not wipe HD, but just wanted people who have...

Yes, real protection is off, I think I know what the problem is, when I had win 10 installed I used a script stop the defender service, as when I try to restart it, it gives the following error: Error 577: cannot verify digital signature. Not too worry as I think I will just do a fresh...
