Is the PC heavily loaded? Maybe another task is using the CPU or hard disk and interrupting the playback.

As long as it doesn't smell you're OK. Now the SBDs are the ones you gotta watch out for... |

hahaha yea i think it's my speakers actually, because the volume on the speakers doesn't effect how loud the fart is, or probably my phones and my shitty dlink router
