Been playing PG since release with no problems at all, no stutters or audio sync problems then today I decide to click on the auto update for my graphics card, ho ho ho ... big mistake!

For you AMD (ATI) users out there be careful of the latest drivers, I was using version 14.4 (about 8 months old) and everything was fine but then jumped to the latest ones today and they caused mini-freezes in-game which then created a problem with the audio sync with the club swing, ball landing etc and worst of all, the mini-freeze affects the 3 click swing meter so virtually impossible to get the timing.

I currently use an R9 270X Sapphire card with an i5 4460 3.2 cpu and 8gig ram.

Uninstalled the new drivers, went back to the older ones and everything sweet again.
As they say, if it ain't broken ...

By the way, the updated drivers today were not the beta ones.

Yeah these darn computers they also make them to automatically do things for us like whatever an update is - it's the best thing - but then Windows constantly backs up a restore point - Y - because it is needed when ya change stuff like the toilet seat lid up or down it can monkey up stuff - The PC people need to leave us alone and quite trying to do stuff for us automatically. 

Try and turn all that stuff off - the problem with doing that is the pc often turns it back on even though you told it now to 

So you have to buy a good golf game to soother yourself and its called Perfect Golf

_{That's why, assuming I don't forget, I always set downloads to 'notify me when a new download is available', rather than do an automatic download. By using my method, I can than always 'create a restore point' before installation. If I not satisfied with the download, I can always 'roll back'.}
