try to load some effect or instrument .

Watch for your DMA modus (your drives,cd-rom)

Doesn't sound right! Have you installed the latest ASPI drivers, intel application accelorator, graphics drivers? Are you using ultra DMA?
All these can make a huge difference, plus defrag nearly everyday. Matrox can cause some problems. Also the latest version of SX is a bit dodgy, try a roll back.
When I first upgraded to XP, SX everything needed to settle in a bit. But try reinstalling SX with virus protection off, and reinstalling your graphics software and drivers.
Hope this helps
