sound messed up
Sound works great in Halo, but then it gets real choppy in winamp. I tried switiching CDs and players (iTunes, musicmatch, etc.) but that didn't work. Any advice? I'm using a mobo with onboard sound.

You could try altering latency or buffer size in your mp3 player if this is supported and see if the choppiness of the sound is reduced. |

I'm using an AGP ATI Radeon 9250 with Mach Speed matrix PM9MS mobo w/ via ID259 chipset. Also, what is latency and buffer size? Thanks!

Latency is the in-between time periods:
