Just got this Ultrabook and it had Win 8 on it... Problem is it would skip like crazy playing audio.... Drove me nuts.... Ran a latency monitor and you could see the spikes in latency and hear the skipping at the same time....
After trying EVERYTHING remotely possible I put Windows 7 on this Ultrabook and although latency is super low, I still get a random spike once in a while that makes the audio skip....
BTW, I am also using a external USB DAC that bypasses the internal sound card all together and I still hear the skips....
PLEASE HELP!!!! I bought this to play/DJ audio on and I cant if It keeps doing this!!!!!
