Audio Latency?

Hi guys,
Well I use Fruity Loops 7 all the time making music, and my problem is that when Im playing back the song, the music often ‘stutters’ and plays very slowly. It also does this when I add a Vst like Nexus. Im am using ASIO4ALL v2.9 drivers, and this still doesnt help. Anyone know how to fix this, or better drivers I can use? Thanks in advance.

That might be your issue, I found these pages which might help,
http://support.flstudio.com/knowledgebase/base.php?id=54&ans=26
http://www.flstudio.com/htmlhelp/
check “Underruns & Maximising Performance” on the right near the bottom.
Other than that you might want to invest in a sound card, that should help.
