Good one Tony

Yes, Tony has a great recommendation here.

For really stubborn glitches, you sometimes need to look at more detailed information on individual processes in real time. You go to the Task Manager and view all processes at once, and you can add or remove different metrics from the various columns of data provided.

Useful ones already showing are CPU utilization.

While in task manager if you go to "View" and then "Select Columns", add PF, PF Delta and all starting with "I/O".

Watch all the processes live and breathe - and perhaps notice corollary between a specific process and dropouts.

If you can figure out what the process is, you're almost there. If it's a specific program or driver it can be an easy fix. If it's a system process like csrss.exe it can be more difficult to track down.

Cheers,
Presto
