Sometimes you can clear up some of these issues by changing your settings in your video setup... not always successfull might i add.
For a list of reccomended video cards, check out this link

I have a swapfile primary on drive C at 2Mb, then a secondary at drive D at 800 to 1200 Mb.
My machine runs NT, and had simmilar problems with slow movement, long thoughts before showing extrudes etc.
Changing swapfile size helped.
The C drive was then too clogged with programs to allow conveinient size swapfile.

When working with SolidWorks, yes Virtual Memory is a critical thing... I reccomend 4x the size of your Physical Ram. Another thing that helps is if you can set up a logical partition devoted to nothing but swap...this helps your saved data from become fragamented so quickly.
Another thing to keep your s ystem sharp is to make sure and run "Unfrag" first which eliminates the Compound files that SW has created.... then Run Defrag. That helps keep disk performance up.
Your lines disappearing are definately a Vid card issue though, if you have the means, I would replace it with one the approved cards, I run a 32Mb FireGL1 with good results, and my other workstation has an Nvidia RIVA TNT2 32 Mb (my home workstation) and it has a few graphical annoyances. So it happens

I did some real Intense DT and in-contexting work at my last job. I had 768 MB of ram I NEVER used more than 512 at one time.
I hope this helps,
