Just a heads up. I have a Lenovo P72 laptop and I've been getting the same "audio interruption" error message along with random screen freezes on my MODX7 when I tried to use it with Cubase 11. Finally figured out that it was due to and outdated "Microsoft Surface ACPI-Compliant Control Method Battery" driver. For those of you on W10 who have an unusable MODX audio driver due to audio interruptions, and dropouts, along with what seems to be some sort of strange polyphony note-clumping stuttering issue which basically renders your keyboard unplayable with your DAW, try disabling this driver under the "Batteries" section of your Device manager. Then start your DAW to check if you're on the right track. If your issue is resolved, you need to update that driver. A simple google search will lead you to a more recent version (the original one was from 2005!). Took me a while to figure this out, but I'm glad it saved me a clean install, and I hope it works for you as well. All the best...

Funny how a P72 has a Microsoft Surface driver.

Maybe Microsoft is just trying to advertise through drivers so the default drivers add "Surface" to what was previously just "Microsoft".

Are you sure you didn't reflexively add "Surface"? I'm reading:

Microsoft ACPI-Compliant Control Method Battery

... if you have a Surface then the "same" driver will instead be named

Surface Battery

At any rate -- if this fixes things then thumbs up on the obscure find.
