_________________________________________________________________________________________________________
CONCLUSION
_________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Your system appears to be having trouble handling real-time audio and other tasks. You are likely to experience buffer underruns appearing as drop outs, clicks or pops. One or more DPC routines that belong to a driver running in your system appear to be executing for too long. Also one or more ISR routines that belong to a driver running in your system appear to be executing for too long. At least one detected problem appears to be network related. In case you are using a WLAN adapter, try disabling it to get better results. One problem may be related to power management, disable CPU throttling settings in Control Panel and BIOS setup. Check for BIOS updates.
LatencyMon has been analyzing your system for  0:02:29  (h:mm:ss) on all processors.

MEASURED INTERRUPT TO USER PROCESS LATENCIES
_________________________________________________________________________________________________________
The interrupt to process latency reflects the measured interval that a usermode process needed to respond to a hardware request from the moment the interrupt service routine started execution. This includes the scheduling and execution of a DPC routine, the signaling of an event and the waking up of a usermode thread from an idle wait state in response to that event.

 REPORTED HARD PAGEFAULTS
_________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Hard pagefaults are events that get triggered by making use of virtual memory that is not resident in RAM but backed by a memory mapped file on disk. The process of resolving the hard pagefault requires reading in the memory from disk while the process is interrupted and blocked from execution.

NOTE: some processes were hit by hard pagefaults. If these were programs producing audio, they are likely to interrupt the audio stream resulting in dropouts, clicks and pops. Check the Processes tab to see which programs were hit.

Process with highest pagefault count:                 svchost.exe

If you disable the network adapters temporarily and run Latency Monitor does it help?

Search for

 

device manager

 

hit Enter

 

You should see Network Adapters.

 

Click on the arrow in front of it then you will see your wireless and wired adapters.  Right click on each and hit Disable.  (Internet will be off)  Close all browsers and run Latency Monitor.

 

Go back into Device Manager and reenable the adapter you use to connect to the Internet.  Right click and Enable

Do you want me to disable each one of these?

 

 

EDIT:  I haven't installed any Realtek drivers myself.

That's odd.  Why do you have 4 Realteks?  I assume you just have the one Ethernet adapter.  I would uninstall all 4 (do not let it remove the drivers if it asks) and reboot.  Windows should just install one on the reboot.

 

In answer to your Question.  Only the Realtek is real the rest are virtual ports created by Windows so just disable the Realtek.

There are 4 ethernet ports on my motherboard.  Are ports called adapters now?  I only use one.  Should I stil tell it to uninstall them and only re-enable the one I use?  How will I know which one is being used in Device Manager?

 

 

With XP x64, I had to install:

Realtek AC97 audio driver package WDM_A406  IF

Realtek High Definition Audio Codec Driver X64 WDM_R2.25  IF

Realtek High Definition Audio HDMI R2.25  IF

Realtek High Definition Audio Driver for 2000XP2003  3264-bit R2.74 IF

 

I needed all 4 drivers because if I uninstalled any one of them, I had no sound.  I haven't installed them yet.

Is that the silver boxes at the top right?  Very unusual.  If you haven't installed any Realtek network drivers yet then try installing the one I had you download before you installed win 10.  Microsoft doesn't always have the latest and greatest.

Yeah, the four boxes that I outlined in black.  In Network Properties, I'm connected to Ethernet, not Ethernet to 2, 3 or 4.

 

I installed the Realtek driver that you gave me.  I haven't installed the ones that I used for Windows XP x64.

 

Do you still want me to do this:

 

Click on the arrow in front of it then you will see your wireless and wired adapters.  Right click on each and hit Disable.  (Internet will be off)  Close all browsers and run Latency Monitor.

XP drivers are unlikely to work.  Windows apparently has found something that works for your audio since you don't have yellow marks in Device Manager.  Does the audio work?  Did you ever disable the network adapters and then run latency monitor?  You can reenable them once done.

I disabled all the Realtek ones, ran Latency Mon and then enabled them all again.

I would uninstall CCleaner as it is causing problems and you don't need it.

 

Get HD Tune

 

http://www.hdtune.com/download.html

 

The download is near the bottom of the page (we don't want the pro version)

 

Download, Save, Right Click and Run As Admin.  I forget if it has to install first.  If you have to run it from a shortcut remember to right click and run as admin.

 

Press Start and you should get an output that looks like:

Once it's done can you use the clipping tool to make a screenshot and attach to a REPLY?
