Yeah well whenever I'm playing music it skips whenever I click on a page to load.

Anybody ever have this problem?

For your computer i take it?
What kinda computer is it (SPECS).
MY Gf had this problem it was a really old comp and the music playing and web browsing together didn't mix. So everytime the page was reloaded or any activity that is, the player would skip a beat, or scramble it up a bit for a second or two.

I'm not sure what kind of computer it is...we had some computer guru build it.

Its fairly new and its not running slow or anything.

O so i doubt it has anything to do with the actual lacking of computer resources then.
Meh couldn't tell ya.
What player are you using?

you're probably using WMP and D3D drivers. The MS D3D audio drivers tend to skip when the CPU is under load. You need to increase the output DAC buffer size to compensate.
That or switch to WAVOUT DACs in Winamp or whatever you're using as a player.
I'd increase buffer size myself.
