New player- don't know where to begin

Yeah. I got DW and 1.04 and I had ridiculous slowdown issues on 1x speed. The only recommendation from the FAQ that solved anything was the vertical sync thing, but that only kinda helped. It runs smoothly with VSync but every so often I get a ridiculously loud ping from the sonar that makes my ears bleed, and the slowdown for maybe 4 seconds, and suddenly the game time has jumped forward maybe 10 minutes. What should I do now?

Also, does anyone have a problem with the music looping the same ~8 seconds of sound over and over again?

Specs:
AMD Athlon 64 X2
Geforce 8600
AB Audigy SE 24 bit
ASUS M2N-E board
4 GB RAM, 93 GB HD space
