Stuttering and skipping during recording

I am at my wits end. I recently upgraded my sound card and hard drives and am having trouble while recording. The palyback is stuttering and skipping while additional tracks are recording.

I'd have another piece of software to screw with, and the Pro Tools name on my gear list.
