Not sure where I should have put this, But I've been having this problem for a few months now.
Usually when I'm installing software at some point or multiple times the computer will literally hiccup.
It freezes for about 1 second, Mouse freezes,Sound gets stuck on whatever it was playing like a constant tone.
this happens even when I have freshly installed a new windows and am installing stuff like ccleaner or my GPU drivers.
I've taken out ram,swapped and played with it a bit to see if it gets rid of the problem but no dice.
I don't think it's the hard drive either.
Also I was using on board sound & I switched over to a new sound card so it's not that.
Wondering if it could be the CPU or the motherboard.
Here are my specs
Motherboard: P5QL-PRO (LGA-775)
CPU: Intel Core Duo E7400 (2.80 GHZ)
GPU: Nvidia GTS 250
PSU: CORSAIR TX750W
Memory: 4GB DDR 2
Sound Card: Sound Blaster X-Fi Extreme
Any helps would be appreciated.
