Windows 10: Audio distortion when recording vocals.

When I record my vocals with a USB mic that I've plugged in the laptop, every time I hit a rather high note the vocals become distorted before completely disappearing until that note is done. I did change recording programs, from the one built-in the system to OBS, it's still the same results. I know the mic isn't the problem considering the fact that I can record up to any notes just fine with my phone.Also, If I'm playing something in the background within the duration of the entire recording, that entire recording also becomes distorted. Even a notification sound causes the same effect. So,

Audio recording

For clarification, we would like to know if you are trying to record a voice recording directly to Windows Media. If yes, it is not possible to record vocal tracks directly into Windows Media Player, you can import the files into your library after they
have been recorded with a different audio software program. Windows Media Player enables you to record sounds from a microphone or other audio devices. Media Player also copies or burns pre-recorded music, photo and data files. See steps below:

• Open Windows Media Player on a PC with a drive that's capable of burning CDs.
• Click on the Burn tab at the top of the window.
• Click on Burn options.
• Select a format for the CD you want to burn:
  
  • Click on Audio CD to burn the disc as an audio CD that can be played in any CD player.
  • Click on Data CD to burn the disk in a data format that stores music files in MP3 format.
    
• Insert a blank CD into the drive.
• Select the audio you want to put on the CD. To do so, click on an item and drag it from the Player Library in the left pane of the window to the burn list in the right pane
  
• windows media player. The burning process will take several minutes. Once finished, your CD will eject automatically.
