Well, if it is a Dell, maybe it's how Dell configured their PC's. Might be a flaw. My brand new Dell Inspiron 640m does the same with Windows Media Player as well. Also, it may be because it's a Sony drive. I use a Sony (the irony) external CD/DVD burner plugged into my laptop with USB (I find FireWire is much slower for some reason) and the CD plays very smooth.

Hardware or software that is the question.
Could be your optical drive itself. Also, Could be the connector from your drive to your sound card or motherboard if integrated. Its a 2 wire 2 pin(i think) connector. It could be bad or loose. If you don't know what your doing inside I suggest contacting someone who does friend or family. You could fry any internal components with static electricity if your snooping around.
For software...Have you tried different software player? OR could be how real player is configured. I really don't know to much about real player or any player for that matter. I play CD the old fashion way, with a CD player and my stereo.

I had the same problem on my computer and I had to replace the cd rom driver and the problem was gone.

My guess would be its a broken tooth on the gears within your CD player.
From your description it has got to be hardware.
