Hello,


I'm working on trouble shooting an audio interface on my laptop.


.OS Name Microsoft Windows 10 Home

Version 10.0.18362 Build 18362

Other OS Description Not Available

OS Manufacturer Microsoft Corporation


System Manufacturer HP

System Model OMEN by HP Laptop 15-dc0xxx

System Type x64-based PC


Processor Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-8750H CPU @ 2.20GHz, 2208 Mhz, 6 Core(s), 12 Logical Processor(s)

BIOS Version/Date AMI F.09, 6/11/2019

Installed Physical Memory (RAM) 32.0 GB






I've been having a lot of audio drop outs\disconnections. I've tried a lot of the usual troubleshooting (adjusted power save settings,,updating firmware/ drivers.) The manufacturer of the interface suggested I'm having DPC Latency issues. However they told me to contact microsoft tech support. i tried and they said there services were down temporarily :P


I ran a Latency monitor and generated this report (listed below). Anyone know where i go from here on this one


Thank you in advanced :D

CONCLUSION

_________________________________________________________________________________________________________

Your system appears to be having trouble handling real-time audio and other tasks. You are likely to experience buffer underruns appearing as drop outs, clicks or pops. One or more DPC routines that belong to a driver running in your system appear to be executing for too long. Also one or more ISR routines that belong to a driver running in your system appear to be executing for too long. One problem may be related to power management, disable CPU throttling settings in Control Panel and BIOS setup. Check for BIOS updates.

LatencyMon has been analyzing your system for 0:21:27 (h:mm:ss) on all processors.

Computer name: LAPTOP-3VG3IKO1

OS version: Windows 10 , 10.0, version 1903, build: 18362 (x64)

Hardware: OMEN by HP Laptop 15-dc0xxx, HP, 84DB

CPU: GenuineIntel Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-8750H CPU @ 2.20GHz

Logical processors: 12

CPU SPEED

_________________________________________________________________________________________________________

Reported CPU speed: 2208 MHz



Note: reported execution times may be calculated based on a fixed reported CPU speed. Disable variable speed settings like Intel Speed Step and AMD Cool N Quiet in the BIOS setup for more accurate results.



WARNING: the CPU speed that was measured is only a fraction of the CPU speed reported. Your CPUs may be throttled back due to variable speed settings and thermal issues. It is suggested that you run a utility which reports your actual CPU frequency and temperature.

MEASURED INTERRUPT TO USER PROCESS LATENCIES

_________________________________________________________________________________________________________

The interrupt to process latency reflects the measured interval that a usermode process needed to respond to a hardware request from the moment the interrupt service routine started execution. This includes the scheduling and execution of a DPC routine, the signaling of an event and the waking up of a usermode thread from an idle wait state in response to that event.



Highest measured interrupt to process latency (µs): 4689.70

Average measured interrupt to process latency (µs): 7.332006



Highest measured interrupt to DPC latency (µs): 4668.90

Average measured interrupt to DPC latency (µs): 3.827375





_________________________________________________________________________________________________________

REPORTED ISRs

_________________________________________________________________________________________________________

Interrupt service routines are routines installed by the OS and device drivers that execute in response to a hardware interrupt signal.



Highest ISR routine execution time (µs): 2215.725543

Driver with highest ISR routine execution time: ACPI.sys - ACPI Driver for NT, Microsoft Corporation



Highest reported total ISR routine time (%): 0.105863

Driver with highest ISR total time: Wdf01000.sys - Kernel Mode Driver Framework Runtime, Microsoft Corporation



Total time spent in ISRs (%) 0.124861



ISR count (execution time <250 µs): 427198

ISR count (execution time 250-500 µs): 0

ISR count (execution time 500-999 µs): 772

ISR count (execution time 1000-1999 µs): 16

ISR count (execution time 2000-3999 µs): 1

ISR count (execution time >=4000 µs): 0





_________________________________________________________________________________________________________

REPORTED DPCs

_________________________________________________________________________________________________________

DPC routines are part of the interrupt servicing dispatch mechanism and disable the possibility for a process to utilize the CPU while it is interrupted until the DPC has finished execution.



Highest DPC routine execution time (µs): 4951.003623

Driver with highest DPC routine execution time: ACPI.sys - ACPI Driver for NT, Microsoft Corporation



Highest reported total DPC routine time (%): 0.064940

Driver with highest DPC total execution time: ACPI.sys - ACPI Driver for NT, Microsoft Corporation



Total time spent in DPCs (%) 0.160781



DPC count (execution time <250 µs): 3466688

DPC count (execution time 250-500 µs): 0

DPC count (execution time 500-999 µs): 25629

DPC count (execution time 1000-1999 µs): 234

DPC count (execution time 2000-3999 µs): 7

DPC count (execution time >=4000 µs): 0

REPORTED HARD PAGEFAULTS

_________________________________________________________________________________________________________

Hard pagefaults are events that get triggered by making use of virtual memory that is not resident in RAM but backed by a memory mapped file on disk. The process of resolving the hard pagefault requires reading in the memory from disk while the process is interrupted and blocked from execution.



NOTE: some processes were hit by hard pagefaults. If these were programs producing audio, they are likely to interrupt the audio stream resulting in dropouts, clicks and pops. Check the Processes tab to see which programs were hit.



Process with highest pagefault count: aswidsagent.exe



Total number of hard pagefaults 9782

Hard pagefault count of hardest hit process: 5789

Number of processes hit: 55
