Slight (but very bothersome) stuttering on my laptop when playing K-Sh

<p>I'm an avid fan of the arcade game Sound Voltex. An emulator for this game exists, called K-Shoot Mania. I have a brand new Asus x751lx-db71 and it should be playing this small game way above par. I get an average fps of about 100-130fps, but the game still has small stuttering (freezes roughly .2-.3 seconds in length) every 5-15 seconds or so of playing. It is unrelated to the game's framerate, as it never shows the fps dropping, I merely just get stuttering. This issue happens about half the time I play. Sometimes I'll play the game and get silky smooth gameplay, and sometimes I will play and have this issue frequently (it's really bothersome in a fast-paced rhythm game). I've created an exception for the game in my Antivirus software (Avast), so that shouldn't be the issue. If any of you can help me locate whatever is causing this, I would be extremely grateful.</p>

I noticed WmiPrvSE.exe as well as Avast and a few others frequenting near the top, but Wmi was one of the worst offenders.

I also notice svchost.exe and dwm,exe show up. I ran the game in windowed and watched the Process Explorer to see if I could pinpoint the stuttering to a task, but it was rather difficult as the game stutters a little too often to point a finger at one thing. I went ahead and saved a copy of what it looks like while I run the game. Still, WmiPrvSE.exe and svchost.exe seem most guilty, like you mentioned.

Run process explorer as before but make sure that under View that Show Lower Pane is checked.  Sort things by CPU as before so that the highest users are at the top.  Wait until SVCHOST.EXE gets up near the top then hit the SPACE bar.  Click on SVCHOST.EXE and you should see a new pane at the bottom.  Then File, SAVE OK.

 

Your last log shows

Interrupts 2.36 0 K 0 K n/a Hardware Interrupts and DPCs

 

which probably means that the driver for your game is very inefficient at least for this operating system.  See if they have a newer version.   I suppose it could also be your video driver but it looked OK in your first log.

 

You can right click on the Avast ball in the system tray (probably hidden by windows- click on the two stacked up arrows to the left of the clock) and select Avast Shields Control and Disable for 10 minutes OK then play your game and see if Avast is at fault.

 

For WMI:

 I would first just right click on the file in Process Explorer and Suspend.  See if that makes a difference.

 

For DWM.exe that your desktop manager that makes the fancy aero displays.  You can probably suspend it with Process Explorer or you can stop the service:

 

Open up Services from Control Panel or the start menu, and then find the “Desktop Window Manager Session Manager” service in the list, and click the stop button. Note that you will be switched to the Basic theme when you click the button.

When svchost.exe reaches near the top of the list I press space bar and then click on it, but the pane on the bottom half of the screen remains blank. Suspending Avast did not solve my problem. Whenever I try to suspend WMI

Suspending Avast did not solve my issue, sadly. Whenever I try to suspend WmiPrvSE.exe it says "Unable to suspend the process: Access is denied". Lastly, when I followed your instructions in Process Explorer, found svchost.exe when it got close to the top, hit spacebar, and clicked it, nothing showed up on the pane on the bottom half of the screen.

Sorry, I'm silly. I ran it as an administrator, and then everything worked okay. Suspending Wmi seemed to improve performance, though I think I still caught a few jitters while playing, yet my fps never dipped below 100. I was able to save svchost.exe, here it is.

This last log really looks pretty decent.  System Idle is high and interrupts low.

 

See if you can run the wmi diagnostic:

It seems to be all clear, except the "# of machines w/ WMI enumeration errors (E) " is 1, and "# of machines w/ WMI provider CIM registration failures (W)" is 1. I'm willing to try practically anything to get this game to run properly. While the game may not be very efficiently created, my friend has a laptop with an older GPU and CPU, and still manages to run it completely smoothly. After investing $300 in a controller to play this game, I need it to run smoothly or I will be a very sad person. I appreciate all your help thus far.

Edit: I just waited for svchost.exe to reach the top, then hit spacebar. I suspended svchoste.exe, and the problem persisted.

You might just go in and stop the wmi service and see what stops working.  Type:

 

services.msc in the search box and hit Enter.  then when the services menu comes up, scroll down to the Windows Management Instrumentation service and right click on it and select Properties.  You should be able to STOP the service then change the Startup Type to Disabled.  OK  If odd things start happening then you can turn it back on.

 

Another possibility is rebuilding the repository:

 

https://support.soft...kspace/kb/88861

 

Sometimes third party vendors will add stuff to the wmi list and they don't know what they are doing and it causes problems.  I think when you rebuild the repository it dumps the third part stuff.  They don't say in the article but you need an elevated cmd window: Start, All Programs, Accessories, right click on Command Prompt and Run as Administrator.  I had to do this to mine when it was losing about 10% CPU to WMI every 10 seconds or so.  It fixed the problem.

 

Tho we don't see it in Process Explorer it is possible that some other program is causing problems.  You can try typing MSCONFIG in the search box and hit Enter.  This should bring up the System Configuration window.  Go to Services tab and click on the box to hide Microsoft Services then uncheck
everything that remains (except your network and avast and maybe your video).  Go to Startup tab and uncheck everything (except your network and avast and maybe your video).  OK and reboot.  If it doesn't help then go back into msconfig and recheck the
things you turned off.  If it helps then go back and turn on a few items each
time until you find the culprit.

After trying your first and third idea, I found that neither helped. While attempting your second option, I tried opening winmgmt service, but the box only appears for a split second before disappearing when I try to launch it.

It's not a window.  You have to open an elevated prompt

Start, All Programs, Accessories, right click on Command Prompt and Run as Administrator, Yes


winmgmt  /verifyrepository

WMI repository is consistent

C:\Windows\system32>

Sadly the instructions that guide uses are beyond my comprehension. Either way, I appreciate you helping me troubleshoot everything thus far.
