Hi,
I had the same problem with an XP on a <3GHz >2GHz machine.
The single sane sollution I had was to use the serial IR
Tower from my Mindstorms 1.0. The bet I took was the IR
protocol between the IR Tower and the Brick didn't change.
And it seems that it didn't.
It is slower (is a serial connection) and one has to have the
previous Mindstorms 1.0 version, but it is an option.

Thanks for confirming an assumption I made regarding using the serial
tower.

This means the problem is either in the USB driver code for the IR
tower, or it is in the DLL that talks to the USB driver.

Does anyone with a hyper-threaded machine use PBrickDev and a USB IR
tower successfully?
