What speed is the computer? How much ram? Have you cleaned the computer lately?(emptied cache, defragmented, etc - I would recommend doing this first and see if it still lags)

Some of your RAM is allocated to your video card. Assuming you have onboard; and it seems that way.

What do you mean by Cuts In & Out?

Personally I use CakeWalk for my recordings. I really like it, Plus it interfaced with my board.

If your files become fragmented(which is inevitable, they WILL over time), that is when you first start noticing - resource-intensive programs start lagging(as in sound starts skipping, etc)...

Try defragmenting:

Start -->all programs-->accessories-->system tools-->disk defragmenter

...no harm in trying, it won't make it any worse lol :)
