Hello all, I need to change my IRQ frequenies for my USB ports, because I have two usb's and sound running on the same frequency. The problem is that after using my usb mouse and keyboard for a while (1-2 hours) the sound gets all choppy, my frame rates in games slows down, and the only way to fix it is to reboot. I've already looked into a heating issue, which it is not. Here is a screenshot if needed :

Bump, I took my computer to a computer repair store, and they told me that I needed to change the IRQ frequenies so that the USB and the audio weren't running on the same one. The guy there didn't know how to do it in vista, so i thought that someone might know here

As far as I can tell its the same as in XP. Go to your Device manager, select the device and go to resources. Then highlight the IRQ and change it.

As for a PC tech not knowing that, answer me why he has that job? I am stuck working in a call center for CitiBank and this tech guy gets paid to fix PC's but can't tell you how to change the IRQ in Vista?

Where do you live so I can get him fired and take over? Freakin idiots are now fixing people PC's. No wounder why everyone has problems.
