I hope this isn't too vague but I'll try to explain what's happening as best I can. I recently did a clean install of windows (but this issue was happening prior to the clean install as well). As I'm playing a game, I'll hear the Window's notification sound (I don't know the specific sound, kind of "boo-boop" like I'm plugging in a new device), and my screen will stutter and lag for about 5 seconds in the game -- I'm not able to alt tab during this time either. I have a *feeling* it might be Chrome, but I'm not sure. I closed the browser and it didn't happen for an hour but I need to do further testing. Just seems weird that it would still be happening with a completely clean install of my OS. Anyone experience something similar to this or have any ideas what it could be?
