Windows 10: ACPI.SYS Causing Extremely High DPC Latency With Audio Playback Pops/Snaps

Ive been reading through the supposed "fixes" to this problem by browsing through the posts here, but none of them work, Have microsoft come up with a fix for this problem yet? LATENCYMON reports extremely high latency of the ACPI.SYS driver which renders my MSI STEALTH GS66 11UE laptop useless for audio recording, the onboard audio AND my external USB mixer have the same results, i paid a lot of money for this laptop for the purpose of using it for audio recording, but this is proving to be impossible as every time i try to work with any audio file all i get on playback every couple of minut

High DPC latency

I use my Dell XPS for recording and live playback but the system suffers from high DPC latency caused by ACPI driver.

I removed Dell audio drivers and installed those from RealTek with no avail. Latency is an issue because I need this computer for live recording. Please your advice.

 

ACPI driver causing abnormally high Latency on Dell XPS 15 9570

ACPI is causing high DPC latency, concerns over live recording capabilities and live playback.

I have uninstalled stock Dell audio drivers and installed RealTek drivers (not sure which ones), this has fixed popping sounds coming from the speakers or headphones.

I need to use this laptop for live recording and live playback of music for a live band, latency cannot be an issue I should have, can you advice on how to fix this?

Why am I getting "glitches" (cracks, pops) in the audio?
