Reply to Running traktor on a subpar laptop

Hello!
I've been asked to do some gigs (my first ones) so I wont be able to use my desktop computer for djing like i usually do. I've been playing around with my subpar laptop and it just doesn't seem to be doing the trick. Songs freeze all over the place and skip beats. However I noticed when I opened task manager that System Idle Process seems to be running even while I have 4 decks loaded in Traktor, and the CPU meter in the task manager is reading at 30%. However the traktor cpu meter is almost always in the red. What's going on here? and is it possible for me to use my laptop to dj?
FYI: these are my laptop specs: http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/d...roduct=3554519
And I'm using a traktor 2.6 with the kontrol s4
I've also tried disabling explorer.exe, aero (with windows 7) and running this script: http://www.djranking s.com/2011/08/1...-power-script/ In order to fix the problem
Thank you for the help!
