Yeah having to disable Multiprocessing to get any music software package working properly in 2008 makes no sense.
You should not even have to
think about thread priorities either.

All that I said above was tested on my old XP x64, but I have recently purchased Vista x64 and I wanted to make use of it. I installed a fresh Vista and with this opportunity I switched to AHCI mode in BIOS (as those on Cubase recomended). This didn't take the problem away though, and Vista doesn't let me to set the priority to realtime, only to High. have no idea why ?

I use Sonar on Vista 64 (and other apps) and have never touched the AHCI option. You really should not need to.

I tried the system on XP 32 bit too. The dropouts and glitches happen more sparsely but they still occur.
I'm on XP x64 at the moment. The drivers for the sound card are the latest I don't have doubts about their compatibility, but today every thing is possible, so I think it's worth emailing their support.
Any other ideas?

Background tasks?
When you open up the task manager what do you see? Is your internet connection live while you use Cubase (Firewall + Antivirus e.t.c) ?
I have been on Vista 64 for some time now and so far so good.

I must say while the interior of my PC is very tidy IMO (especially in a big case) MAC's certainly do have a lovely interior
