If the system has only Intel-integrated video, it's not up to running a full 3D package - that's the problem. It's a bit like trying to tow a 2,000 pound trailer with a Hyundai Accent.
The Intel video is almost certainly the bottleneck. It's just not well suited to 3D applications - any of them.
Installing XP on this system will be an exercise in extreme frustration - there just aren't readily available drivers for the entire system, so you will wind up with a partially functional system at best.
But will my system be sufficient just for creating models....no rendering or special effects?
What kind of troubles will i excpect if use this computer for 3DS MAX? for example...i have glitches like: i just press the right mouse button and the window with options popps out, i move the pointer over it and it partially disappears/appears..
If you look at what Autodesk recommends (bare minimum 256M video; 1G recommended) you don't have that -- so, the answer is that your system, while it meets the bare minimums, just isn't going to run that software very well.
The video chip is part of the CPU and there is no dedicated RAM at all - the system RAM is allocated for video. Even with more RAM, the video chip is going to be marginal for this application - which is a demanding one.
If your system is new (less than 21 days old) you can return it for any reason - and if you re-order they may be willing to waive the restocking charge. Then you can order a system that's more in keeping with the demands of the application you want to run - an XPS 17 would be a minimum baseline for that. Better for demanding 3D applications is a desktop system.

But i am not talking about rendering the objects that takes most of the computer resources...i am talking just about modelling...
will it work? or maybe i have to install XP....bc 3DS max 2011 runs alright..just some glitches

what is this? is the video card realted issues?
thanks

Intel HD Graphics 3000 with up to 1.6GB Dynamic Video Memory
what does it mean? how much memory the graphic chip on my processor can produce then?
