I don't know whether this site will help at all, it seems to suggest that your card should be OK as long as it has 64Mb ram of its own.

Given when this is happening, I wonder if it might be a problem with Nautilus, though why it should disappear when you switch off desktop effects I don't know.
Have a go at this. Open a terminal and (with effects switched on) type:
Assuming of course you have a folder in your home called 'Documents' if not choose something else.
See if you get any warnings and if possible copy them (or note down the basics if you get another freeze) and post the results here. That might give us a clue.
