I recently found this problem a month a go or so and have just ignored it for some reason,
At first i found my Call of duty 4 had some sort of Sound Delay,
Example
Shoot..
0.5 -1second
sound..

And it's really ******* annoying seeing it has a delay in the demo sound, and recently i found im getting it on youtube aswell, so it must be a driver / update im missing but i cant seem to find anything,

The only thing i suggested to myself, is that my CPU is hot and my sound card isn't working 100%, but i also thought maybe my CPU is being slow and its making a sound delay, i have no idea.

My cpu sits around 40-59 degrees celsius. Vary of which game.

Ill post my device manager if that helps.



ALL HELP IS VERY APPRECIATED
Cheers

I am also certain it would not be a hardware issue, because the sound does eventually play.

CPU temp wouldn't affect it,

You mention that your CPU may be slow?

I would ask you to post specs but i am pretty confident that you have a somewhat recent CPU

I would reinstall drivers for soundcard.

re-install Audio drivers

That's the problem boiz, i dont know where to download / what audio drivers.
I'm a shit **** when it comes to drivers.
EDIT: I cant actually uninstall my 'Legacy Audio Drivers" only update, and theres no updates.

did your motherboard come with a disc? it's on there.

I just recently bought a new mothereboard, probly a month or so ago, it came with a box but dont remember a disc.

I didn't put the MB in, the guy at the shop did, so im guessing he already put the disc in and has kept it or something dumb.

^ that's a high definition audio drivers, choose your OS.

Are you sure? it should have came with a disc, even my $50 mobo came with one..

It costed 500-600 to get my PC fixed, ended up being MB was ****ed and new ram sticks.
So its a pretty good MB.
I just dont remember a disc.

Did you install your LAN card, etc yourself? if you didn't they guy probably installed it for you, including the sound card, anyhow, give realtek a go, let me know how it goes.

Nah, the tech guy did it all.
But i hate the ****, because my pc said i had 2gig ram when i had 4gig, 2 sticks of 2, and he took them both out and gave me one new 2gig ram stick.. , now i have to buy more ram.

But im sure he did it all

EDIT: Restarting my PC to finish the installing.

LOL ripped you off.

Just got back on cod4, and the delay is back
as i said, i play cod4 when i turn my pc on and its fine for 20mins or more, i get on later, and its delaying again, i downloaded the HD audio driver exe file and ran it all and restarted my pc, and it still does it :/

If you have any suggestions, my xfire is : Shadezyy
I have teamviewer if you think you might know a fix or want to see my stuff, im not real good with this shit.
