I didn’t tryed to partition yet, but still I Swaped my Traktor S2 for a new one, and the problem keeps being there, even after cleaning all the shit up. Now I’am realy fucked, I don’t know what to do next. I feel like the new partition won’t help at all, except eating my time doing it --‘. I’ll probably bring it back to the store and get a refund. I’am so Tiered of this shit, I’am soo pissed and disappointed of NI not being able to optimize something that simple for a PC :’( ---

> [@RockingClub](#): > > @NewManSoon > Which Vaio do you have? Some months ago I tried to upgrade my video drivers as well but I wasn’t able to find where. At the Radeon homepage it was a mess to find anything about a new driver (maybe there just wasn’t one, I couldn’t make head or tail of it.). I have the sz330p w/ Nvidia graphics. Once your graphics are updated, make your Traktor is in Full screen mode (it makes a difference). If the load is still high, start removing other devices one by one. I can run with wireless and battery - no issues what so ever. ---

Arn’t the recommended specs 4 gig of ram? Plus shouldn’t your laptop be 32 bit? I would get more ram. I optimise my laptop using all the tips on here and on the native website. There is a script bat file on here somewhere also for optimising. Plus I use game booster as another tool. Defo disable your wifi and turn off your anti virus and firewall. Good luck with it. ---

Just use the version before 2.5. The minimum specs have gone up on this version and it’s very demanding. ---

I found something out. My Traktor Kontrol S2 was connected to a USB Root Bus wich already had some Storage device connected to. Each USB Root Bus can manage to have 500mA of electrical power. I had two things connect on this one but not enougth energy. So my Kontrol S2 kept disconnecting. Yesterday I tryed a different USB port and everything seemed to be fine.
