    Lafsadio,
    Not sure what the problem could be, but try running a complete diagnostics on the entire system using the Dell utility.

    I ran express test in Dell diagnostic and got no relevant error messages.

    Hmm…This may be a little frustrating, but how about opening up the task manager (Ctrl + Alt + Del) while the video is playing to see if any of the processes or applications are “spiking” during the time when the video stops. I had a similar problem (except, mine would stop every 20 seconds) and it turned out to by my anti-virus software. But, since you say that yours is turned off, it may be a little harder to pin point.

    Try this;

    Solution 2: Change the affinity setting for the Adobe Premiere Elements.exe or Adobe Premiere Pro.exe process to use only one CPU.

    To change the affinity setting:

    1. Start Premiere Elements or Premiere Pro.

    2. Press Ctrl + Alt + Delete and then click Task Manager.

    3. Click the Processes tab.

    4. Right-click the process Adobe Premiere Elements.exe (or Adobe Premiere Pro.exe), and then choose Set Affinity.

    5. Deselect all CPUs except the first CPU listed (CPU 0), and then click OK.

    6. Quit the Task Manager.
