Windows 10: Windows 10 causing audio clipping/popping

I've been having an issue where a lot of sounds on my computer are clipping/popping. I have tried multiple pairs of headphones, all of which had the same issue. I tried the headphones on a different computer, and they still had the same issue. Additionally, if I record my screen, the recording will have the audio distortions in it. The issue also happens in safe mode without networking, and seems to occur when I begin to boot up windows 10 even as I hear some of the same distortions while turning my pc on.


I have tried reinstalling Realtek drivers, using the regular Microsoft drivers, setting power management mode to high performance, disabling turning off network switch to save power, disabled CPU throttling, installed new chipset drivers, installed new LAN drivers, uninstalling NVidia drivers, and changing audio power management settings in the registry.


DPC latency doesn't seem to be the issue, as I've used LatencyMon and the issue has occured while LatencyMon has told me that I can handle real-time audio.


My motherboard is an ASRock B460m Pro4.


Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Add Fade Audio Effects In Video Clips.

Hi Gustav,

Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.

If you are using Microsoft Photos application to fade the audio, then there is no feature in Photos application to fade the audio; however, you can fade the audio by using Microsoft PowerPoint Application. Follow the below steps to fade the audio that you
want using Microsoft Photos application.

Step 1: Click on the Start Menu and search for
Microsoft PowerPoint and hit Enter to launch
PowerPoint application.

Step 2: Then, click on Insert > Audio > You can add the audio file as well as directly record an audio file.

Step 3: Click on the Audio and click on
Playback tab beside to Format tab.

Step 4: Then, you will see the Fade In and
Fade Out options.

Fade In: Adds a timed fade effect at the beginning of the audio clip. Within the Fade In box, directly enter the exact number of seconds you want the clip to fade in.

Fade Out: Adds a timed fade effect at the end of the audio clip. Within the Fade Out box, directly enter the exact number of seconds you want the clip to fade out.

The option for fading the audio in Photos Application is a great idea, so I suggest you to post your feedback for the same in

Feedback Hub.

Hope it helps.
