MSI GT660 Sound Problem (Win 7)

[Mojoz]

Hey guys, i recently decided to reformat my MSI GT660, so obviously something i have not installed correctly has caused this problem. I'm just not sure what. The sound works, it's just as i'm playing music in the background every now and then, it'll sound distorted and messed up for a few seconds, then go back to normal.

It keeps doing this, and it's really annoying. I tried reinstalling the Realtek HD audio driver, but no luck. Any ideas?

The sound is MP3? Internet?
Played with what player?
What do you do in the foreground?
100% CPU load can cause such too.

Your information is waaaaay to little to even start guessing.

Hmm yeah, guess i wasn't really thinking. Right, it's played using Spotify, i just tested with Winamp though and the same problem is there. So it's all kinds of sounds really. I don't think it's 100% CPU load cause i checked the core history and none hit 100%, also i'm only browsing the internet when this happens. So to answer the question of what i'm doing, not much really just opening new windows etc.

It never used to do this before i reformatted it, and it's only just started now. I don't think i noticed any sound problems when i was playing a game earlier though... i'll have to check that one out.

Just tested to see if it done it when i was doing nothing at all, and it did. So it's nothing i'm doing that triggers this.
