I just installed a second hard drive

and moved audio files from a project to new drive.
to try and comply to the help files suggetions.
I still get those audio gaps.
when I touch the scroll bar to drag the scroll bar
and sometimes it just gaps with out touching anything.
Excerpt form Sony Vegas 6 help files:
Why do I hear gaps during audio playback?
There are many reasons that your audio playback may gap:
Playing back too many tracks simultaneously may overload your hard drives. More. . . .
Defragment your drives regularly and save audio tracks to separate physical hard drives.
Use hard drives with fast seek times and spindle speeds of 7200 RPM or greater. SCSI drives typically have better prolonged data-transfer performance than IDE drives. Vegas software can take advantage of SCSI asynchronous reading, which boosts performance. If you're using IDE drives, consider upgrading to a faster controller card.
Use fewer events in the timeline, and trim silent sections to decrease disk access.
When you're satisfied with the mix, you can use Render to New Track to combine tracks and decrease the amount of disk access required.
When you run out of physical memory, your operating system will use virtual memory, which is slower. More. . . .
Exit all unnecessary background applications.
Decrease the setting of the Playback buffering slider on the Audio tab of the Preferences dialog.
Add more memory to your computer, and if your motherboard can support faster memory than you currently have installed, consider replacing your RAM. For example, if your computer supports both PC133 SDRAM and DDR (double-data rate) RAM, you'll see increased performance with DDR RAM.
Your CPU may not be able to process a complex mix of tracks and plug-ins. More. . . .
Zoom out fully so that the timeline does not need to scroll during playback.
Make sure that peak files are built for all audio in the project.
Consider using non-real time event effects to decrease processing.
When you're satisfied with the mix, you can use Render to New Track to combine tracks and decrease the amount of disk access required.
Your sound card driver may be causing audio gapping. Contact the audio card manufacturer for updated drivers.
