Okey, so I used to run a lappy with 1.8 ghz duo, 2 gb ram and Echo Audiofire2 in XP and I could run Traktor 3.2 without ANY problems, no jitter, EVER.
I hate Vista, I really loath it but for some reason I can't install XP on it, when I boot up with the original XP cd it says I don't have a hard drive to install on, which... ehm, I do.
Back to my problem.
So I'm running Vista now on a 2.1 ghz, 4 ram and same Echo Audiofire2. I have deactivated ALL flashy graphics in the settings and I'm down to the square basics of Win 98/XP visually.
Now, logical thinking would suggest that my software would run equally smooth at the very least as with my old lappy but here's the kicker...
Sometimes when I run the system brand new started, shutting down WiFi, Virusprotection and any other background thing it jitters. It comes and it goes as it pleases. Then I can sometimes run the laptop with internet running, virus protection, browser, torrents downloading, MSN, Skype etc and I don't get a single jitter.
There is absolutely nothing logical about this.
Can anyone think of a reason why a computer would behave this way besides stating the fact that Vista is a poopie head?
