Anyone had this problem?
On my CRT monitor, sound in FS9 worked fine, even in thick fog and clouds when the fps dropped to 8, it stayed like a continuous sound.
However, on my TFT monitor which i have just bought, the sound stutters (like a helicopter noise ta ta ta ta ta ta t ata ta etc) when the fps drops.
I thought this is weird, anyone have a solution or had the same problem? I'd be interested to hear about it _________________

I have a CRT, but are the speakers attached to the TFT monitor.
Do you have an integrated sound card on your mother-board or a separate one.
Maybe the sound drivers need to be updated.
Let us know how you do.

The sound card is separate and I have already got the latest drivers for it.
What I cant understand is what a monitor has to do with the sound quality. I just put my CRT back on and it is fine. As soon as the TFT goes in again it goes stuttery sound below 20fps
Weird eh! _________________

| I was reading through the posts and was wondering what your TFT refresh rate is set at? I had similar problems myself when I increased my refresh rate to 75Khz and shortly after blew up my TFT and the sound was not that good either. TFT's generally use a default refresh rate of 60Khz but a better shimmer free display can be obtained using 70Khz, any more and you risk frying the TFT's internal driver circuitry. Which I did and had to fork out another bundle of cash for a new one. It may be your TFT is putting too much demand on your processor at these high refresh rates. Anyway I bought a new TFT and speaker set from Neovo AEG and I have had no problems since. Its just a thought mind. |

| Does that monitor have built in speakers, as RadarMan already asked? |
