New laptops always cause problems until you "get them under control"
You need to figure what is happening on your laptop outside of VDJ
- It could be your harddrive going to sleep, or maybe an USB driver entering a deactive mode
- Or it could be something staring up - like an anti-virus program
The first few things are simple to check - like your power settings and sleep modes, but in the end you may need to use a monitoring program to find "the bad guy"

Thanks mate I ran a latency test on it too and that was all good. All I have on the laptop is virtual DJ and my music folder nothing else

That's never really true. New laptops comes with all sorts of unwanted stuff on them. Everything from extra windows features, and trial versions of systen tools, to bad drivers and bad default settimgs
That's why I said that new laptops always cause trouble until you get them optimized - so there is really no way of getting around going through the process

How long did you run the latency test for?
If the tracks stutter after 30 mins then you need to run it past that point, to see if you can catch whatever causes the glitch.
