Sound problem with Vista

I got my laptop (with vista home premium) december 07. It has since had to
undergo a full factory reset due an issue it had where it would jam up
whilest playing a CD, then refuse to play anything for hours afterward, it
would read nothing gthat was put in the drive.

Now that its been reset, it seems to have developed a whole new set of
quirks, such as its repetetive attempts to re-connect to the internet after
ive switch off the wireless receiver. And it will play music files when its
just WMP running by itself, but you try running the internets as well, and
the sound goes wacko. It crackes, lags and jumps, only returning to normal
when the net is off again.

It does the same using winamp, and im baffled by its new weirdness...any help?

What sound card?
When you use Task Manager to see how well your PC is performing during that
usage - is the PC working too hard?
