Entity does that, the bigger the BSP the bigger the strain on your computer. You'd need more RAM to be able to view it at a normal frame rate.

My computer only has 512mb of ram and it can run the bsp viewer on any map without any lag. You need a better video card.

the main problem is definantly your graphics card
you should get a new one with at least 256mb of memory
