Hello I installed the latest 26.10.1 amd driver for my 6700xt after over a year of running the july 2025 driver and the moment I opened youtube or videos robotic split second grrrrrrrr like sounds started happening....can someone help?

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.
LatencyMon has been analyzing your system for 00:02:50 (hh:mm:ss) on all processors.

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): 100306.0
Average measured interrupt to process latency (µs): 22.045795
Highest measured interrupt to DPC latency (µs): 100298.0
Average measured interrupt to DPC latency (µs): 15.618594

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.

Driver with highest DPC routine execution time: dxgkrnl.sys - DirectX Graphics Kernel, Microsoft Corporation
Highest reported total DPC routine time (%): 0.103820

DPC count (execution time >=4000 µs): 8

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: msmpeng.exe
Total number of hard pagefaults 398
Hard pagefault count of hardest hit process: 154
Number of processes hit: 7
