Today my system started to sound very edgy, without low extension details, proper soundstage and musicality. I prepared fresh image with OS on my flash memory and after 20 minutes music was back!  Happy

So guys, what's the best playback tweak? Format C:/ - it's not a joke...  grazy

Would someone be so kind and explain to me, how on earth after formatting special mode is far from adaptive in terms of SQ? And DPC latency checker shows about 100us (previously ~25us). Same drivers same software installed. What the hell?

Ouch, now that is frustrating.

I'm afraid you didn't copy all the settings, or they couldn't be copied (the previous install may have beenan upgrade ?).
Often this is about power saving settings, from what I've read.

But I guess you all knew this, and this isn't much helpful. Sorry ...
But when you found the cluprit, please let us know !

All the best,
Peter

OK, I followed you recommendations, switched power settings to performance and everything is fine now :D I thought that it matters only in case of mobile devices, not PCs...
