anomoly in xp pro

[seagora]

I am having a rather strange anomoly in windows xo pro that I have never seen before. It seems that everything is moving at an accelerated rate, i.e. blinking cursor blinks really fast, heck even the time in the lower right hand corner moves really fast, a minute on that computer takes about 4 or 5 seconds. I am dumbfounded as to what it could be. Could it the motherboard or something? I've reinstalled it because I thought it could be a virus or something but it still does it. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
