    Random Stuttering / DPC Latency Nightmare


    I've been having the same problem when i came across this topic, it made me write the first reply here. For me the solution was as simple as changing the router beacon interval to 100, over 100 causes stutter on windows 10 and torrent client open.

    Just for record, audio stutter issues still exist after all of updates. Not so much but it still.

    I was experiencing the same sort of sound problems with my MSI GE40 laptop. Similar results on LatencyMon for ndis.sys. Like others it only started after I upgraded to Windows 10. Seeing that there were no windows 10 drivers for my Realtek RTL8723AE I decided (after reading this thread) to buy a supported card and switch it out.

    I installed the Intel 7260 (Dual band AC) earlier today ... and so far, no problems.

    This has been going on for months and I'm kicking myself for not realising/trying this sooner!

    been having this trouble for a while. thought I had it "solved" at least to some extent... can't recall, but I at least changed some power management settings, tried different drivers, but the problem persists and can even affect my mouse cursor at worst... but today I found that uTorrent is CLEARLY contributing, and knowing from way back, uTorrent notoriously opens a helluva lot of sockets or whatever. So clearly, something wrong in the TCP/IP system, and either Microsoft needs to fix it, or they just expect chip manufacturers to blindly code their way around this mess? Well I'm about to update my Realtek driver to the official latest, which is very recent and specific to Windows 10. See what happens...

    Having the exact same problem. Realtek have release a new driver yesterday which i hope will help solve this super annoying issue.
    But that does not appear to be the case.
    Mine is atm looking like this.

    Just out of curiosity, ndis.sys is a realtek product, or MS ?

    Random Stuttering / DPC Latency Nightmare

    I had bad latencies on Windows 7 & 10. I was using an HRT, but when I replaced that DAC with a Schiit Bifrost, everything is fine! I was quite surprised! Even though it appears to be a system file that's causing the problems, it can still be hardware or software problems.

    hard to say for sure without doing clean baseline tests, but in my case, using the Windows 7 drivers from the motherboard manufacturer (manual install, because Windows 10) seems to leave me better off. Not saying I have no DPC latency now, but it seems to be less. dcplat.exe was showing less - but yeah, I didn't do a clean boot baseline comparison.

    This has been wracking my brain ever since updating to Windows 10. Just random stutters, less than a second long. Never had this issue on 7 or 8. Tried uninstalling a bunch of programs with no luck. Checking with latencymon though, "ndis.sys" seems to be the culprit for me. I have an onboard Realtek network adapter with the latest drivers so I don't know what else I can do.

    I'm actually curious now... if it would help to swap out for a solid Intel card... if I have a free slot. I'm switching to a new system at my workplace. I think I'll borrow the card and see if that helps any.

    Anyone else tried this and had any luck?

    Has anyone had contact with their network adapter manufacturer ? Like realtek support or the like ?

    I solved my problem. In my case it seems to be the HPET (High Precision Event Timer) setting in the BIOS that was causing it. I just happened to be changing my CPU and was looking around in there and started googling stuff. My computer feels so SMOOOTH now, and dpclat.exe shows mostly green all the way across!!

    After much testing, network traffic (torrenting) is the cause of my stutters. Disabled my onboard Realtek network adapter and tried a wireless USB adapter. The latency spikes and stutter associated with "ndis.sys" disappeared. I'm not sure if this is is specifically a Realtek problem, a Windows 10 problem (did not have these issues on previous versions of Windows) or both.

    but the same was happening to me, seemed to be torrents doing the main damage. some motherboards don't have any options affecting DPC latency, but (now I don't recall where I found it) there is a program that you can run in the background that will help. Next time I grab a batch of torrents tho, I'll keep an eye on dcplat.exe
