Winamp 5 Crackling, I tried all the help topics!

Grindking · 23rd October 2005, 16:08

Ok, I browsed the forums and tried alot of fixes...it doesnt work!

I get crackling in alot of sounds, not like super loud...just a background crackle, exactly liek when you play a record.

I thought maybe it was my computer, but I played the same songs in WMP and I dont get any crackling

system specs:
AMD 3000+ 2.0Ghz Athlon 64
K8V SE Deluxe ASUS Mobo
1 gig corsair ram
1 5000 RPM 40 gig hdd
1 7200 RPM 160 gig hdd
Windows XP Home
380 watt PSU
Geforce FX 5200 128mb OC Video card
on board SoundMAX Digital Audio

Almost forgot, my speakers are the Logitech X530 5.1 Surround system

I'd suggest that you turn off all your DSP/Effect plugins and try again.

I had a similar problem with AAC files and figured out that the Enhancer DSP doesn't work with it.
