Sound Problems Solved
I think I have solved my problem of my sound card. It didn't require the Windows reinstall (though it needed to be done anyway, that sound problems just pushed me over the edge). After reinstalling Windows, the sound card still stuttered. Guess what, all I had to do was go into the Control Panel, then go to Sound and Audio Devices, then go to the Audio tab, then the advanced settings. Turned down the hardware acceleration one notch and I was all set. I am very happy now, it was too quiet around here the last week.
