Win XP doesn't run smooth on Macbook

I wanted something different to play with so I bought myself a Macbook at work and bootcamp'd it so I can boot OS X or XP sp2.

Windows doesn't run smoothly. Audio crackles and the system hiccups for tiny fractions of a second where it won't respond (cursor won't move during this time either.) It's driving me crazy, I can't find any reason for it. It did this right after a clean XP install, so other than the drivers that were installed from the Bootcamp driver CD that I installed immediately after XP there shouldn't be anything in the background causing this.

Any insight would be appreciated!
 
Elaborate on the crackles. Is it stuttering or there is some sort of static/pops over a steady stream of audio playback. Are any devices missing drivers in the device manager?
