i dont know how to say it but i can count to the hitching its so exactly timed... and its JSUT started happeneing today, NOTHING is overclocked, infact i think my ram may be running lower than spec actually... al voltages are fine, hard drive status is good last i checked, and nothing out of the ordinary has happened lately... also there is this beep from the system speaker occasionally, it ALWAYS happens JUST after a hitch... and its really starting to stump me... any ideas? need more info? just tell me, thanks guys :D

[edit] WAIT i may have found something... services.exe in the taskmanager spikes during EVERY hitch just to the point it makes CPU usage 100%... any ideas?
 
Any malware? I might not be interpreting 'hitches' correctly...

My speaker would randomly go crazy when using a panaflo fan on the heatsink, because it has no tach. (sometimes no beeping, sometimes always). I just unplugged the SOB... i like my panaflo more than error codes :D
 
its like lagg in a game but on the desktop :p just a momentary pause... sound keeps going though >_<
 
Do you have virii and spyware protection? Get them up to date and run some scans. Hit Ctrl+Alt+Del and look for wierd processes. Google them all to see what they are... Doesn't sound at all like a hardware problem to me, at least in my experience.
 
didnt think it was hardware either, and i ran malware scans (3) and cleared anything and its STILL doing it... and i can honestly say i know ALL the processes are normal... my msconfig has been checked, nothign out of the ordinary >_< the beep is really confusing me though, and its not my CPU fan or anything, its got a tach on it and is reporting fine... does ti with or without monitoring programs running in the background...

and it seems the hitching has become less noticeable ^_- and tomorrow morning at 8 it starts virii scanning...
 
cell phone nearbye?

this happens with my computer, to the point where sometimes it can make it freeze up...
