So no apparent temperature issues with CPU, viruses, malware or any particular process.įollowing up on the thing you mention with respect to Task Manager I came across this: I have also reinstalled windows but the problem is still here :/ Thanks for the response It's not just when i lisen to music, any type of sound gets really crazy and it's hard even to controll the cursor. When i look in the tank manager a thing called 'system memory and compressed memory' is at the top and when i go to the file of the task it's named 'ntoskrnl' in the system 32 folder. Since you've checked for viruses you may as well check for malware if you haven't. Have you used Task Manager (assuming Windows) to check why the CPU is being pushed to its limits? Something has to be doing it but there's no mention of it in your posts.
However, depending how you play your music then there could be potential problems (though I'm specifically thinking of an internet music streaming service, and that would be battling your download for bandwidth causing problems). Besides, downloading something shouldn't be a CPU task as far as I'm aware, so it sounds like something else is going on. Even my x4 760k can download a game from Steam and carry on playing music or other tasks with ease.
