| Kirk R | This handles the audio drivers and services for yout Sigmatel compatible sound card and 5.1 software surround, its authentic and official, dont uninstall as you will lose the advanced features if your sound card. |
| Davion | I wondered today why my system is hot like hell and discoverd that the process stacsv.exe gathered 50% performance of my dualcore cpu. I kicked the process and my system still works fine |
| Ray | I have had problems with it. Causes one core of my dual core laptop to constantly run at 100% making CPU usage at 50% overall |
| Daryl | it was a virus on my keychain drive. created it's own autorun.ini saying to run it. |
| Ray | I find that when it runs, it uses 50% of my CPU and so I stop it. Audio etc still works, I think it may be used to sense when headphones or mics are plugged in |
| | It's function is to automatically identify if there's a set of headphones connected. So it's not essential.. |
| Stephane | legit process but goes on high CPU usage for no reason |
| Faalagorn | In my HP Pavilion dv5 1070-ew stopping this service prevent the mute icon to change it's color (but it will still work as it supposed to, it just always stays red). When the service is disabled, then volume slider behaviour seems to be bugged, but IDK if it was the reason. I keep that service running, however it's not essential for audio and audio buttons work. |
| Bengt Sundvall, Sweden | I got the same message "STacSV Module stopped working and was closed" after waking up my HP Pavilion HDX9490eo from hibernatition but I could nevertheless listen to streaming music from the Web. So it doesn't seem critical for audio, at least on my machine. Windows advice was to go to the manufacturer's web site and upgrade the drivers. This has happened to me once before but since it obviously didn't affect my audio listening, I really didn't care about it. Those user who think its harmful must be wrong about that |
| edizzi | STacSV: Manages audio jack configurations |
| Fake Al Gore | This is an installed audio device driver for SigmaTel STAC-based audio devices. It is essential for the functioning of audio playback and recording on systems with STAC-based audio devices. |
| Aravind kumar | i am using Dell XPS studio 1340 laptop In my system this file using 50% processor resources i know it is essential because it is related to audio in system but i think there might be a chance virus can corrupt it otherwise why this file need 50% processor resources? |
| Nick | SigmaTel Audio Service is stacsv and it locates on program files. If the file name is STacSV and it is located on System32, it is a VIRUS! |
| Bill | Sigmatel Audio Driver - but wht is mine trying to broadcast to the network? |
| Tom | i turned it off cos its used 50% of my cpu and my speakers and headphones still both work perfectly i just wish i could fine a way to stop it coming on rather than having to terminate it from the task manager |
| DennisG | Its using 50% of my resources on windows 7 |
| Jemalas | It's an audio driver, sometimes it stucks and load a lot CPU, in my case, after upgrading visto to windows 7. Ih you want to avoid CPU load click start- run- type services.msc- find service called "audio driver" click properties stop it and mark Startup as Disabled. That should not disable audio in windows just stops audio software. |
