    Hi
    I have a notebook Dell Inspiron with a core i7 2630qm.
    Whenever I listen to music, watch a movie, play a game or talk on skype ( anything I do ) it "stutters". I don't know how to describe this, for a second the sound and video "stutters".
    I don't know the reason, but it's starting to get on my nerves. I even downloaded a program that monitors the temp ( i don't know if that's the problem ).


    These ( pic ) are the temps with a few tabs opened in Chrome and Yahoo Messenger running.
    In a game ( eg. Batman Arkham Asylum ) it goes up to 88.
    Any suggestions ?

    Have you considered reinstalling the OS? Try a Linux live disc to rule out software. I've seen driver latency do that.
