The bottom line is that you bought a consumer game card because it was
cheap. Now your paying the price because it no longer cuts it. Set your
sights a little higher next time and get a good mid-range workstation card
like the Nvidia Quadro series or even the ATI FireGL series. I can concur
with everyone else's recommendation though. Nvidia has had the better
product when running real engineering workstation OpenGL apps (and AutoCAD
isn't one of those).
You made the comment that your company can't afford a properly outfitted
workstation to run SolidWorks efficiently. On the contrary, your are most
likely wasting 2-3 times of what a new workstation would cost you in lost
productivity if you use SolidWorks only 50% of the time.

Thanks,
The video drivers are the latest as of a week ago and I went through the
general recommendations on the FAQ that I could find like disabling
Software OpenGL, removing addins, keeping journal files on the local
drives, etc and it did not seem to provide any noticable improvement.
When I installed SW2006 I used the standard setup defaults and did not
change anything in the options until now.

A couple afterthoughts. You may also want to check the video driver
that is suited for that video card which SW recommends (again on their
website) Also, check the display setting in SW under Tools-Options.
Make sure the quality is not set to the highest setting. Make sure
there are no other programs running in the background to make sure
there is not anything that could be causing a slow down. Compared to
SW 2001+, SW2006 requires a bit more power to than you may be used to.
But as I stated in my last post, it sounds to me you need a better
video card, or at very least a good driver.
