• My computer is running "Windows XP stop critique.wav" sound every 10 seconds.

  My computer is running "Windows XP stop critique.wav" sound every 10 seconds for the last 8 days.  Window XP SP3.  I spent 1-1/2 hours will dell workstation support and 1-1/2 hours with my computer work (shot as a favor to my personal computer) and they find nothing, MacAfee installed, updated several full scan virus.  A ran Malwarebyte s multiple crawls - nothing.  Kaspersky lab - nothing.  Computer work ran a vrius start-up detector and nothing.  No error log is generated.  And two technicians stop various folders in the Task Manager and NOTHING he did stop.  I was sent a disc of reinstalling XP SP3 Dell and I did a repair XP complete with no fix. Technician COMPUTER checked a bunch of stuff and thought it was "related to a driver."  Regardless of what is the cause, how do I find the problem and fix it.   Thank you

  @GarySibley:

  Thanks for the comments, and I'm happy that you found.  Although I'm not surprised that an msiInstaller error could have caused a "critical stop" but I never thought that he would deliver the error never seconds.

  @JudsonWelcher:

  I suggest you also check your event viewer to find errors msiinstaller.  I've seen other posts where a sound "critical stop" appears to be linked to these errors (but like I said above, not continuous repetitions of the error).

  There is no easy way that I know to track this sort of thing.  Before you start the method of 'Clean boot' or start using the process monitor, open the sound control panel applet and scroll down to check that Windows XP stop critique.wav has not been assigned to certain events in addition (or instead of) a real stop critical Windows.

• Windows 7 - get a ding dong sound every few seconds

  I am running windows 7. I get a constant ding dong upward, then ding dong down every few seconds

  Hello

  Thanks for posting your query in Microsoft Community Forum.

  As described in the question, I understand that you sound every few seconds on the Windows 7 computer. I will certainly help you get this fixed number.

  I would be grateful if you could help me with more information:

  Do no pop up also when this noise appears?

  This problem may occur because of any USB device connected to your computer. I suggest you to disconnect all the USB devices on your computer and check to see if you still get the sound.

  Connect the devices once you diagnose if the noise comes up or not after the disconnection of the devices and follow the procedure below.

  Run the hardware and devices Troubleshooter

  Integrated the hardware and devices troubleshooter can automatically detect and fix most of the incorrect settings and errors that could cause problems with the equipment. I suggest you run the troubleshooter to check if there is no problem with the graphics card. See albums as follows:

  1. open Control Panel

  2. click Troubleshooting and select the option to display all on the left pane.

  3. click Troubleshooting of hardware and devices and follow the prompts.

  Hope this information is useful. Please come back to write to us if you need more help, we will be happy to help you.

• Distortion of the sound every 20 seconds on Satellite C

  When listening to audio with and without a helmet, every 20 seconds or so the output sound is deformed for several seconds and in some cases this sound distortion also causes computer to freeze completely display.

  My PC is a Toshiba Satellite series C running Windows 7.

  Any suggestions please?

  Please be so kind and post some info about this noise problem.
  Are you using the original pre-installed OS that you got with your laptop?
  Have you noticed this problem on the first day?
  Have you noticed this problem whenever you hear the music and watch movies using different actors?
  With other words, it's a kind of general problem on your laptop?

  When this happens you noticed most high HDD activity in the background (System analysis, installation of updates or something similar)?

• Hum/buffering sound every few seconds when the streaming videos online.

  I can't stream videos online (IE youtube, vimeo, etc.).  Every few seconds the sound will sound buffer. The photo is very good all the time. I have updated all drivers, tried to change the 16-bit sound, 440000Hz, update flash, silverlight etc. I also tried several browsers such as IE, firefox and chrome.

  I found a solution that is far from ideal, but if I disable the Realtek High Definition Audio, restart the computer and then reactivates the Realtek High Definition Audio, the sound buffer disappears. Unfortunately the its buffer returns the next time I start the computer.

  Does anyone have a more permanent solution than the deactivation of the sound system - reboot and then reactivating og the sound system?

• computer beep will sound every 3 seconds and does not stop while the computer is on... why not? How to stop it? __

  My new Dell Inspiron 1545 beeps (like a USB stick is plugged or unplugged) every 3 seconds, without judgment, without doing me anything to provoke. I turned the computer off and back on several times, but the noise persists.

• Re: Buzzing/buffering sound every few seconds when the streaming videos online.

  I'm having the same problem. I followed your steps with the sound and even the glitching. Any other suggestions? Everything is updated, I use windows 8.1 it seems to be a little better on the Netflix App, but from time to time it will happen. Cannot watch Youtube or any other video. Tried to download the Youtube app to see if it is useful, and it was worse. Thank you!

  Hi @TobieJThiel ,

  Thank you for visiting the Forums HP's Support and welcome. I uninstall the current browser and download a new one for Windows 8.1. You can do this here.

  I would check here to see if there is Chipset driver updates that are needed as well as the BIOS update.

  I hope this helps.

  Thank you.

• system crashes every 2 seconds

  Hello people!

  I have a laptop G62 with the 64 bit version of windows 7, I have almost 4 years

  About 3 days ago, I ran a few youtube videos, the system started to freeze (video + sound) every 2 seconds!

  I turned it off and went to bed, the next morning, I turned it, went to the home page! and he showed me the desktop but nothing opens, not applications without the browser, when I opened the Task Manager, it showed the programs that I clicked with a * 32 at the end!

  in about 5 min later explorer.exe crashes and I had to stop it.

  what I tried:

  memory test: test the HARD disc, freezes in almost 50%

  factory reset: the partition is not found

  Scan of the system with antivirus: freezes in the Middle!

  software to clean registry
  
  logged in to windows, normal start, after 6-8 minutes it starts to freez every 2 seconds, and every two seconds, I hear a noise in the HARD disk like crack! and it happens every 2 seconds
  
  my activities:
  performance of Flight simulator X
  turn 3d flash games
  movies and videos youtube

  system:

  Intel Core i3 2.40 GHZ (4CPUs)
  Home Edition of Windows 7 64 bit
  
  Note: I have been using safe mode with network for over 2 weeks now, is not freez in this mode!
  I do not have the CD repaired

  Sounds like the hard drive is failing fast and will need to be replaced. If you are still in warranty HP will send a replacement. If this is not the case, a laptop SATA hard detail can be used. Just be sure to get one of at least equal quality of the original in order to use recovery disks to install Windows & programs. It may be big, but not small ability more. For example if you have a 500 GB hard drive you can use a 750 GB hard drive, but not a 320 GB hard drive.

• EliteBook 8560w: 8560w w / external projector does not not under Linux or Windows 8.1

  I recently bought an Elitebook 8560w opportunity and installed 8.1 for WIndows and Linux in a dual-boot configuration.  Using the laptop for weeks caused no problems at all.

  I used the display port on the screen on a TV 720 p to Samsung to mirror, so the kids can play games and it works perfectly, but when I try to connect to a home theater receiver as a passage to a projector 1080 p, the projected screen turn black for a few seconds, and then correctly show the desktop. This trend will continue indefinitely.

  I hooked it goes back to the 720 p TV and it works perfectly.  The problem exists in Linux and Windows.  I uninstalled the drivers and reinstalled a different version in each operating system.

  Ideas?

  The Elitebook works and no hardware or software problem.

  You may need to have an active DisplayPort to HDMI adapter since signal must pass the home theater receiver.

• BSOD Atikmpag.sys Elitebook 8560w ati m5950

  Hi all

  I have problems with my Elitebook 8560w. I get the BSOD on startup all the time, when the login screen appears in windows 7. (atikmpag.sys)

  I have tried several things but I can't solve it, the laptop cannot start up if I use the standard vga driver.

  Things I've tried:

  Fresh install Windows 7 x 64, Windows 7 x 86, Windows XP x 64, Windows XP x 86

  Tried all versions of BIOS

  Tried all versions of drivers for video card, both HP and Ati with fres installs Windows.

  It's getting boring, please help me.

  Where can I get the latest version of the video Bios for my m5950? Who can solve my problem.

  Hello hlaca20. I understand that you have a problem with the blue screens that often occur during startup. Is this correct?

  You've tried quite a few steps to solve the problem. I think that the combination of the BIOS update, fresh install multiple operating systems and fresh drivers excluded the majority of software problems. Have you tried to test your equipment?

  If you have not deleted the partition of HP_Tools you can use the built-in tools that provides HP. You should test your memory and the hard disk to determine whether there are problems.

  This document describes how to run the hard drive test. Simply repeat the steps in selection of memory the second time to test the RAM.

  I'm waiting for your answer; have a great day!

• audio interruptions every 30 seconds on WAV recording AND playback - computer laptop Dell 1545, Windows 7

  Recently (the last couple of weeks), my laptop Dell 1545 with Windows 7 started having a problem: when I record or reading any WAV file (or a file MPG or WMV video too by the way) with any application (I tried several), there is a stuttering or interruption every 30 seconds like clockwork.  I have tried everything and can't seem to fix it.  During playback, it causes a split second buzz or silent, on the record, missing just a fraction of a second of audio, leaving a 'leap' in the best stuff WAV audio recording.  The only changes that I made in the system in the past month have been a few updates to Windows 7.  It ruins any recording or playback, I try to do, and is very frustrating.  It does the same thing on the files that are years old and new files (reading).  If I burn these files to a CD or DVD, they play very well in the CD drive or DVD, is not a problem in the files (except those currently record during breaks).

  What I tried:

  Much, restart several times.

  Reinstall the driver for my audio interface, even if she did the same on the native sound card too.

  Download the new driver from the audio interface and install it.

  Back to the old driver, then again to the new.

  Tried to record from multiple sources, ditto.

  I tried recording through the native as well as audio interface sound card.

  Deleted 40 GB from my hard drive.

  Defragged my hard drive

  Off my anti-virus program

  Close all other programs other than playback of the file.

  All USB disconnected elements.

  Tried to plugged the charger and entirely on batteries.

  RAM tested.

  Tested CPU.

  Nothing has worked so far.

  Any ideas?

  DWasnich: I had the same problem as you yesterday after restoring my Dell Inspiron 1545 to factory image. Through process of elimination (as mentioned Gokul T) I was able to determine that one of the services was originally the audio and video to jump to 30-second intervals. I disabled the 'Intel Matrix Storage Monitor' service and solved the problem. Why this service was installed and running after the factory reload is confusing. This is one portable hard drive without needing a RAID System. I hope this has solved your problem too! Joe

• Windows 7-3 beeps every 30 seconds while logged in (not around the screen of the Bios, not connecting)

  After that I connect to Windows 7, I hear 3 rapid beeps every 30 seconds. It does not go far, i.e. it is not a time of presence and repeat indefinitely. I ran Diagnostics through bios and see anything there (no hardware problems). If you cut the speakers it disappears is not an internal part, like the motherboard. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

  Hi Mark,

  I appreciate the efforts to try to solve the problem. Please write us with the following details.

  What is the brand and model of your computer?

  As you mentioned that you do not receive this sound, after turning off the speakers, it seems to be a problem caused by any process running in the background. I suggest you to open Task Manager and check the process running in the background. If you find any suspicious process just try to put an end to this process.

  You can also try to check the cause to the clean boot.  To help resolve the error and other messages, you can start Windows by using a minimal set of drivers and startup programs. This type of boot is known as a "clean boot". A clean boot helps eliminate software conflicts.

  ===========================================

  Think about it an absolute must - manually update your drivers.

  Vista and Windows 7 updated drivers love then here's how update the most important.

  This is my generic how updates of appropriate driver:

  This utility, it is easy see which versions are loaded:

  -Free - DriverView utility displays the list of all device drivers currently loaded on your system.
  For each driver in the list, additional useful information is displayed: load address of the driver,
  Description, version, product name, company that created the driver and more.
  http://www.NirSoft.NET/utils/DriverView.html

  For drivers, visit manufacturer of emergency system and of the manufacturer of the device that are the most common.
  Control Panel - device - Graphics Manager - note the brand and complete model
  your video card - double - tab of the driver - write version information. Now, click on update
  Driver (this can do nothing as MS is far behind the certification of drivers) - then right-click.
  Uninstall - REBOOT it will refresh the driver stack.

  Repeat this for network - card (NIC), Wifi network, sound, mouse, and keyboard if 3rd party
  with their own software and drivers and all other main drivers that you have.

  Now in the system manufacturer (Dell, HP, Toshiba as examples) site (in a restaurant), peripheral
  Site of the manufacturer (Realtek, Intel, Nvidia, ATI, for example) and get their latest versions. (Look for
  BIOS, Chipset and software updates on the site of the manufacturer of the system here.)

  Download - SAVE - go to where you put them - right click - RUN AD ADMIN - REBOOT after
  each installation.

  Always check in the Device Manager - drivers tab to be sure the version you actually install
  presents itself. This is because some restore drivers before the most recent is installed (sound card drivers
  in particular that) so to install a driver - reboot - check that it is installed and repeat as
  necessary.

  Repeat to the manufacturers - BTW in the DO NOT RUN THEIR SCANNER device - check
  manually by model.

  Look at the sites of the manufacturer for drivers - and the manufacturer of the device manually.
  http://pcsupport.about.com/od/driverssupport/HT/driverdlmfgr.htm

  Installation and update of drivers under Windows 7 (updated drivers manually using the methods
  above is preferred so that the latest drivers from the manufacturer of system and device manufacturers are
  found)
  http://www.SevenForums.com/tutorials/43216-installing-updating-drivers-7-a.html

  If you update the drivers manually, then it's a good idea to disable the facilities of driver under Windows
  Updates, that leaves about Windows updates but it will not install the drivers that will be generally
  older and cause problems. If updates offers a new driver and then HIDE it (right click on it), then
  get new manually if you wish.
