Check the hardware requirements with your computer specs. It looks like your video card is not good enough for ArchiCAD. Maybe updating the video drivers would do the job?

The amount of RAM is enough, however I am not sure the card is very strong.
Normally, navigation in the 3D Window should be smooth even with larger models. If your navigation is slow or erratic, then the card may not be strong enough.

My understanding is that the intel intergrated video chip have poor openGL support in the drivers.
