Problem with smooth scrolling a window

I'm implementing a pop-up taskbar notifier window which is supposed to
"slide up" from under the taskbar.

It's working but its quite primitive. All I do is to create a timer which on
every Tick (25ms), moves the position of the window up a notch. If the pc is
doing nothing it scrolls acceptably "smoothly", but if the pc is busy doing
something then it appears very slowly and often quite jerkily.

How should I be doing this properly to ensure a more consistent
smooth-scroll effect?
 
To be more accurate, just to clarify, I'm not actually doing any "scrolling"
of course, I simply want to move a window down or across the screen
smoothly.
