    For some reason and alot of other people on the internet have experienced this but I believe my realtek HD audio is crashing any game that is unreal 3 engine. If im playing through HDMI, randomly the screen will lose signal and then the sound starts stuttering. The only way to get out of it, is a complete power off reboot (using the button). This happens in, Bioshock, Batman, Mass Effect, Borderlands, etc. I have FW480j and it happens with windows 7 x64 and windows vista 64. Any ideas or fixes?
