Recently I have been having a lot of issues with the sound on my computer. The audio will be fine for a few hours but then there will slowly start to be small popping and distorted static sounds every now and then until eventually its almost impossible to hear what you are actually supposed too. When I restart my computer it goes away for a while, but then within a few hours the problems come back. When I try to troubleshoot or anything I get an error that says "windows shell common dll is not responding" and then I can't even open anything related to sound on my computer. I have tried disabling and uninstalling and reinstalling and updating my sound drivers but nothing has helped. I really need help figuring this out because i keep having to restart my computer like every 4 hours to fix it.

I do not have a sound card. I use the onboard sound chip thing on my GA-Z170X-Gaming 5

These problems happen on both my speakers and my headset.
