First thing I would say is upgrade the memory. 2 gigs is pretty low for a dj laptop. I still use a older up and dropped 8 gigs and it works just fine now. Also make sure you turn off non essential processes when djing. No wireless, I turn my norton 360 off.

• Processor Type: Core 2 Duo
• Processor Speed: 1.80 GHz
• Processor Core: Dual-core (2 Core)
• Standard Memory: 2 GB

If possible, try to bump up your CPU a bit. Then, echoing what DJMDubs said, increase your ram when you can. I’ve been lucky though. After lots of tweaking and streamlining, I’m able to run Traktor Pro 2 & Virtual DJ 7 on the same ancient Dell Latitude D620 with an intel 2.33 Ghz Core 2 Duo and 2gb of ram with zero issues. A ram upgrade is coming in the near future.
