    Hi, been having some problems since I reinstalled XP on my new laptop. I reinstalled for atleast 8 times after i got it.

    The problem ? Stuttering audio.

    The drivers provided at the acer website doesn't work, so I have to find and found a driver for my wireless. Installed it, worked great...until I play any audio, from games, media player, flash player.

    But when I disable the wireless adapter, the audio works fine. I was thinking that I got the wrong driver, but it is the only working driver I've found.

    Yes, I was reinstalling Windows 8 times just to fix the audio problem. Then I realized it was the wireless.
