Hi, i bought new laptop 3 months ago and until then i am fighting with audio dropouts when audio goes through usb audio interface Yamaha mw8cx. So, when audio is reproduced through laptop speaker everything is normal. I also tried different usb audio interface, steinberg ur22 and the dropouts still occurs. It happens no matter if audio is from youtube or my collection.Dropouts are not freaquent, they come every ten minutes(sometimes longer, sometimes shorter).Also intersting is that when i connect my usb audio interface and dont install appropriate drivers, windows has some automatic drivers and i dont have dropouts but then i cant use my usb audio interface in my DAW, cubase (music production)
Today i updated my OS to windows 10 pro, but problem is still here.
My laptop is HP 470 G3- intel core i5-6200U 2.3 GHz, 8 gb ram, windows 10 pro
So here is my latencymon check run for 3 hours. I hope we will find solution to my problems! Cheers!
(I made a thread in win7 part of forum but i will delete it because i has updated to win 10)

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. One problem may be related to power management, disable CPU throttling settings in Control Panel and BIOS setup. Check for BIOS updates.
LatencyMon has been analyzing your system for 3:22:33 (h: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.

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.
