Hi I, completely new to PCSX2 but I have owned a PS2 since it's launch. I am having a problem that seems to occur often from what I have seen. I have that sound Issue snap crackle and pop in the background....mainly crackle. I looked at the topic of sound under the FAW sticky here and followed its suggestion I believe there was some sound improvement I can hear music/effects a little better in the background but it's all under the static noise. It seems like it always intesifies when there is an explosion it sounds really rough. I also tried what is done the video below. The frame rate stays at around 60 although it does drop at times but not long. It fluxciates. The game I just tried was Thunderforce 6. Perhaps I don't have a strong enough PC? I have on board AMD RADEON graphics card. Amd Processor A403310-MX APU RADEON HD graphics. But I only have 6 gb of ram. I don't know a lot modern pc gaming because I played mostly on consoles. It's an HP laptop not the weakest of laptops and it seems to run several games I have tried fairly well save for the sound. I was wondering if anyone might be able to help me more? If any further suggestions about settings, PC specs etc...would be greatly appreciated. Perhaps there is a better game for testing? I have used any emulators in the past...Autobleem for PS1, Sega-most consoles up to Dreamcast/ and also for many retro systems....so not a total noob to the concept.
