It got bored of walking normally? Is anyone in the immediate vicinity singing "Skip to my Lou"?

Maybe it's just in a good mood today?

Might be that your sound card is stressed for some reason and can't handle the playback. Are you running onboard audio or an add-in sound card?

Add in, i ran CHKDSK last night and am testing now, hasnt skipped yet, so i think there may have been some disk fragmentation from my someone holding the button down on the front of my computer till it shut down....

I was going to suggest a chkdsk and defrag.. I've seen that issue with video playback due to fragmentation. :)

lol... so.... as it turns out.... it was a layer one issue... i unplugged the headphone jack and blew it out and plugged it back in... It was just a bad connection.
