I am having problems playing sounds and music from my PC with static and music slow downs?

I have a Pent 1.4 with 1 Meg of RAM with an older Creative Sound Blaster PCI. Recently when I go to play a song with Media Player or any other player it plays with static and slower than normal. When I fully minimize Media Player it plays perfectly fine unless I move the mouse around and then I hear static again which fluctuates with mouse movement. The mouse does not slow the music at all but any movement or action (open program) causes bad static. Its strange but if I minimize the media player half way it still runs slower but not as slow. Fully minimized is perfect if I dont do anything. I ran all tests for sound and all checked fine. No conflicts. Tested speakers with MP3 and they are fine. Switched to a different sound card with same static. Updated drivers – still happens. Ran a full diagnostic on the PC and all was fine. My next step is to light a candle in Church…HELP I need my sound back!!
