Sony Vaio PCG-K13 Laptop. Roughly once every 1-2 minutes it will skip/stutter for about 1 second. No matter what program is running Easiest and most obvious during music. If I'm just typing or surfing it's not even noticeable except a weird typo that will pop up once in awhile due to the stuttering/skipped keystroke.
I have switched out both pieces of Ram with another piece, and it's done it in all 3 formations. I've removed ALL individual peripherals (physically and through device manager).
Here's the interesting part. If I put it into and out of hibernate mode once or twice, the problem goes away completely until I do a hard reboot. (Which is what I do often, then let it hibernate when not in use, I only hard boot once every 1-2 weeks now)
