windows xp issues

i have reformatted many times and the same problem occurs. when i login into windows i get multiple beeps and windows seems to be frozen for a bit. when i double click on icons sometimes there will be a long delay before the program opens. sometimes they will not open at all. this is also weird. when i try to scroll down in a menu or internet explorer the menu or IE will scroll by itself or stutter back and forth. i hope this all makes sense. when i boot into safe mode this still happens. the occurence is random. as a result i switched back to windows 2000 and don't have the problem. i have an asus p4t-e mobo, 40 gig IBM HD, 20 gig maxtor HD, 512 MB of RDRAM, p4 1.6a GHz, soundblaster audigy, and linksys nic. please help. thanks.
 
when you do this in win xp, what do you see in the event viewer?
any obvious software conflicts?
are you using the latest xp drivers for your chipset/cards?
good luck.
