Windows 10: Sound Lag after Windows 10 October update.

Good day ladies and Gentelmen.


First time posting a problem, not the first time having problems on windows 10 update, but somehow i usualy got answer how to fix, or simply re rol back on previous version.


I like the new windows 10 october update, but after installing update on previous windows version. my sound started to lag after every 1 or 2 minutes.

I thought okay, i can instal fresh windows, downloaded from Microsoft windows download tool.


Installed fresh windows with fresh drivers. and sound still lagging. its like music or game is played and it lags, interupts for half a second every now and then.


To be more speciffic, i am using Creative Omni soundcard via USB with Dolby digital live, optical cable.

I tryed to change MHZ in windows control panel sound panel. Disable audio enchantments.

Use different USB port. No more ideas to do. I havent found out that others have similar problems, after this update, but i remmember a year back a Dolby digital live problem what was for 2 months or so when MS fixed it.


So im here with lagging sound and no idea what to do..

Can it be fixed, its Creative driver problem or windows.


Was fine before october update.


Any help?


Thank you.

:)
