Ground Control in XP
I am trouble with Ground Control in the briefings where the sound would sutter like a broken record is there any reason for this or is it just another XP problem?

from my experience, it must be the AC97 codec. I have seen it produce echo effects and/or clicks pops in some games (Ghost Recon, Colin McRae 3).
Have you got a spare soundcard or can borrow one from a mate and see if the stuttering continues?
PS: I am guessing that this only happens in games and when you watch dvds, divx movies, listen to mp3 in winamp or wmp the sound is ok, right?

Perhaps try lowering your audio HW acceleration in DxDiag or lowering your audio options in game?
To lower your audio HW acceleration, click start > run > then type in DXDIAG.EXE and hit enter. Then click the audio/sound tab and slide the acceleration bar to different settings to see if it helps. Note, this may increase compatibility but it will do so at the cost of performance. Be sure that if this does work to crank up the acceleration for other games.
