RAM's the usual culprit for larger maps. Video lag you can fix by turning settings down (or buying a better card) but if you've run out of RAM things get messy.

How much RAM are you running now? 256MB, 512MB, 1024MB?

Check Task Manager. Look at the Performance Tab. Down in the lower-left is "Commit Charge(K)" which tells you how much RAM+swap you have, how much is in use and what your peak value is. If the peak value > installed RAM then you're swapping to the hard drive and you should install more RAM.
