Long pause accessing system information libraries

Greetings,
I have a P4-3.0C, Asus P4P800E-Deluxe, 1 gig system, Win XP Pro SP2 (+all
updates) that has one annoying problem- it has a long, long pause in any
application that queries system information. I'm looking for tools or
methods to remove this problem!
Example- when launching SiSoft Sandra, my PC hangs at the splash screen for
2-3 minutes before launching the application. 3dmark03 is the same way. On
all other systems, these splash screens come and go quickly.
I'm wondering if there are any 3rd party tools that do similar to test as
well as any hints for logging or tracing why so many programs hang/pause for
several minutes when querying system/hardware info. I do have access to both
VC++ and CBuilder 5.0, so if anyone has any generic API tests in code that
might help for isolating this, I can definately do this.
Any help, hints, insights or comments appreciated. This system runs so
nicely that I simply do not want to re-install it again! It was freshly
re-installed about a month or two ago and didn't have this issue prior to
that. I have several other Win XP Pro SP2 systems on the LAN with fresh
installs with near identical hardware that also do not exhibit this problem.
.
