Personally I would bet on it being soundcard latency. I would try and get a USB interface if and when you can.
Thanks!

Latency is a complex issue but you should be able to reduce it to manageably low levels.
Download Dpclat from www.thesycon.de and rum that for ten mins' or so. That will tell you if your computer is capable (as it stands) of running click free, low latency audio.
If the results are bad start looking at programs you do not need (at all or starting up) Naturally uninstall redundant stuff but if for instance you have an Office progg' go to "Start>run>cmd and type MSCONFIG then see what is starting up. ONLY stop those things you are dead bang sure of! (like an office progg) .
Many cleaner programs start and stay. Just clean when you need to. Anti-V? I use Msoft SE for all W7 PCs, very low presence and nay bother in 5 years.
Disable any wireless internet kit (this does not apply to things like wireless kbs and mice).
You don't need a powerful computer to run a few audio tracks. A 2G + processor and 2G of ram should be adequate. Reaper has a multitrack demo in it, if you can run that you should be fine.
The AI and VERY MUCH its drivers influence latency the most. The little M-Track is probably ok because M-A were very good with drivers.

In the main though Sheldon, you need a decent audio interface with low-latency ASIO drivers.
