I have recently formatted and reinstalled windows on my hard drive to fix a number of problems. The main remaining issue is that all video and audio stutters. It’s not always very noticable but always there.
I think it may be caused by faults on my hard drive. The post screen is displayed for 30-40 seconds when loading up and does not let me into the BIOS or startup settings which I think suggests a hard disk problem. I have tried a few hard drive checkers but none of them are able to complete and so I don’t get a log telling me the problem and they don’t attempt to repair.
Would hard drive problems cause stuttering on all video and sound including streamed media?
