When you "log on" to the net, are you using a dial-up (telephone) modem, or are you on broadband (adsl)?.

I presume that you can't do anything when you have this egg timer, like the PC is doing something ALL THE TIME?

sound has gone too?

When you reinstalled XP, did you install the sound/modem drivers?
