Logic3 Posted January 16, 2011 Share Posted January 16, 2011 (edited) So when I first installed it I was using onboard sound, and if I hadn't restarted my computer in a few days GTAIV would get an odd pulsating buzz, that gets more noticable when there are more noises/music playing. Since getting a soundcard however, it happens all the time. From the intro music to menu movements, radio stations to weapons fire, it makes this noise. After a fresh restart it would only happen if I were on a call in skype (it would start and I'd have to restart to fix it again) but vent only made a slight buzz but no continuation. I can't stop it, haven't found anyone else that has this problem and have tried several audio settings for my soundcard and windows but to no avail. Maybe I should get windows 7 now ... If anyone has had this and found a fix please reply Edit: Oh yeah almost forgot; sometimes the audio will cause it to attempt to CTD (even with the pop-up "o noes it broke!" window) and starts looping the last 2 seconds of sound over and over until I kill the .exe. Yep. Edited January 16, 2011 by Logic3 Link to comment https://gtaforums.com/topic/467653-audio-buzzoccasional-crash/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
mkey82 Posted January 16, 2011 Share Posted January 16, 2011 For the sound looping issue there are no fixes, afaik. If you're using XP, then you should check that hardware sound acceleration is set to max.

Logic3 Posted January 17, 2011 Author Share Posted January 17, 2011 ... Nothing obvious has worked, I'm hoping there are less-than-obvious solutions. Link to comment https://gtaforums.com/topic/467653-audio-buzzoccasional-crash/#findComment-1060298407 Share on other sites More sharing options...
