I managed to solve my stuttering with windows task manager. I just wathced my notebooks processor performance with and without DA:I running in windowed mode, I discovered something must be wrong because cpu usage without any program running was 25% and with DA:I the usage was
97 -100%. I clicked on the processes tab, ... I saw nothing unusual, but then I discovered an option in the lower left corner (show all users processes) and then I was surprised. Windows Media Player online sharing ran in the background eating up almost 25% processing power and something like 2GB of ram. I disabled the process structure immediately (when DA:I run in the background!!!) and then DA:I started to run perfectly smooth and cpu usage went back to 75 - 80% and stayed that way until I played the game. (I hope it will stay that way. I dont have time now to test it properly with Windows restarts, etc.. 😕mileyfrustrated: )
Anyway here is the hastebin link to my notebook's (64 bit) dxdiag just in case if you or the Devs are interested:

I hope it helps to some of you. 😕mileywink:

You sir have saved me!
Its exactly like you stated. I also found a way to disable it since it runs on startup.
Im using win 7, go to start menu and search for SERVICES.MSC and Run it
Scroll down and find Window media player network sharing and double click it
click the dropdown menu by startup type and select disable
Restart Computer.
Mine is already diasbled and the only things I can see spiking on memory usage is DAI, one of my winodws host processes, and the origin client.

It would be in everybody's best interest to switch over to the linked thread, it addresses and explains the main problems of poor performance and directx crashes, that most people are experiencing.
