This is depending on wether you use Gigastudio or the older Gigasampler and on your OS.
I got the old Gigasampler to work on a laptop running Win98SE with a built-in soundcard with directsound-drivers.
I believe Win 2k/XP does not support directsound so you probably need to get a soundcard with proper GSIF-drivers.
Also the harddrives in laptops are mostly too slow with too high seek-times to push the Gigastudio to its limits. But there are users getting nice results with GS on top-end laptops.
