Audio and Sound glitches, stutter, freezes

I am experiencing an interrmittent problem in Vista 64.

When i am watching a film (normally via Videolan player) or gaming online I experience occassional second/two second long glitches where the sound and video of the media i am watching freezes for a split second.

This causes a buzzing sound (presumably this is the audio stuttering).

It isn't lag and the play back is not constantly choppy. The files (gaming and video) are played from my hard drives not my DVD drive.

My system setup is as follows:

Akasa Eclipse case w/ 2 x Nexus 120mm fans
E6750 w/ Scythe Ninja cooler and Nexus 120mm fan
Gigabyte P35 DS3 mobo
OCZ Vista gold 4GB (2 x 2GB) PC26400 DDR2 RAM
XFX 8800GT GPU w/ Arctic Cooling Accelero 1 rev 2 (Turbo module attached)
Samsung 203B DVD
Corsair 620w Modular PSU
Terratec Phase 28 Sound card

My OS is on a 250GB Seagate SATA II HDD and i have various other HDD as storage.

Any help would be gratefully accepted as it is driving me nuts. I have spent a lot of money on this new rig and am pretty tempted to go back to XP...

I have the latest drivers for everything also.

Thanks
