This is regarding F1 23. It worked without issues for months. I played other games and then returned to it recently.

When I play, I get this "crackling sound" with a little stuttering effect. My system can handle it because I played it without any issues for months. This is something new that is happening. Has anyone had/or also having this problem?

 

Crackling sound similar to what you used to hear from speakers, like a popping sound from a blown speaker. It would be almost tolerable if it wasn't accompanied by a stuttering effect.

This needs a bug report and a dxdiag please. Your post may have been moved here, without it it is hard to make suggestions.

No, I'm not having this problem.
