: If you experience crackling or lagging audio (often caused by the lack of native FMA support), go to your Windows Sound settings and disable Spatial Sound .

In some cases, your CPU may actually support these instructions, but they are disabled in your system's BIOS or the OS isn't recognizing them.

Anything else I should try? Curious if this is a CPU instruction set issue (AVX2/FMA) or a game/launcher setting. Appreciate any step-by-step fixes or links to guides.
