Windows 10: when are you going to fix the sound lag on my 4-month-old computer?

4-month-old Dell 3910 Desktop, Win 11, already contacted Dell but they couldn't remedy the problem even after gaining access to my machine and replacing various drivers, I myself have been to Microsoft site and used all the various fixes for the problem but nothing fixes it. The problem is when I sign on to AOL all I hear when logging on is "elcome" instead of "welcome" and then when I log off, I hear "oodbye" instead of "goodbye", I know it sounds rather trivial but non the less I find it rather irritating, for a new computer.

Interesting sound and lag on computer.

Hi

I am pretty much at a loss for what to do here. Ever since updating to Windows 2004, I have had the following problems:

My computer will all-of-a-sudden become sluggish, making robotic sounds through the speakers slow down the mouse and make the computer unbearable.

These are the solutions that provide a VERY temporary fix to these issues:

• Uninstalled the mouse driver. Fixed for a day.
• Uninstalled and reinstalled an updated audio driver. Fixed for a day.
• Uninstall and reinstall mouse driver. Fixed for about 10 minutes.

I have tried different mouses, and the computer will still lag when the sound driver is uninstalled and disconnected.

Memory check was all okay no issues.

Any suggestions?
