Sounds like a video card/sound card problem. I was getting this with a previous system where the system would pause then contiue like you are speaking..I would play a song it would bounce around then be normal. I had a cheap video card in it. I replaced the card and everything worked SMOOTH!! What are yous system specs? We have the OS covered.
 
Well my Video Card isnt cheap its the radeon 9700 series P4 2.5 ghz, 125 Gb or ram 80GB HD master and a 10Gb slave HD.
I whish i could just do a system restore but when i got it back from bestbuy all the restore date where gone and the only days i could restore it was 2 days ago witch when i tryed it said it could not be restored...
 
Sound's like somethin's hogging ur memory n' cpu .. Why don't u run Hijack this or Processxp n' post the results here ..

Also have u noticed which process is using up the max CPU power when the system starts lagging
Keep ur task manager open n' watch for a while .. n' u'll notice it
 
the top 6 processes are svchost.exe 25,000k, msmsgs.exe 22,000k, iexplore.exe 18,000k, spysweepeeper.exe.16,00k, CAPP.EXE 10,800k and explorer.exe 10,200k

and I dont know where to get hijack or english Processxp....
 
I still cant get it! can you post it? or is there another srouce? Download.com cant even do it but I can download AIM i think there is something wrong with their server I also downloaded procexp
 
on procexp when ever it starts lagging the littel icon on by the clock of the screen turns red.
