How much RAM do you have?
The red light... Do you mean the hard Disk light? Have you defragged your Hard Disk? Tried updating the drivers for your Sound Card? Etc....

Could be a spyware issue I guess, something is using your processor up and causing it to do other tasks before playing the music. I would run some scans for virus and spyware first off. Then have a look at the program you use to listen to music... see if you can find a less resource intensive one.
If you click run and type MSCONFIG, then go to the last tab, it shows what boots on startup, go through each one and turn off the ones you dont need, Google them if you're not sure. Then reboot. If might be you have shed loads of rubbish running.

As John says, 2 antivirus progs wont help, especially if one is Norton as the slows down computers imo. I would certainly check for updated sound card drivers though as it sounds like your processor is doing the work instead of the sound card
