Hey GNB,
Your stepper should run very smooth. Try turning down your accel and vel. in motor tuning and see if it sounds smoother. Sounds kinda like a noise issue to me. Also, post your code for us to see and notice if when it messes up while running code is it trying to move two axis at once at the same feed rate? One way to check and see if it is skipping steps would be to put a mark on the table and command a move equal to one rev. and see if the marks line back up.
