I strongly suggest you to get a separate graphic card, so, as Jamie already told you, you would be able to use
the state of the art about the FS releases. FS9. After the V9, and for the moment at least, nothing is really worthy of being bought in the FS world.
My old rig was in fact less powerful than yours (
An Athlon Xp 2600 with a Gefo 6600GT 128Mb AGP) and FS9 worked on it just fine with all the bells and whistles at max and only slowed down a little when a lot of AI planes were showing.
I would suggest you to buy another GB of memory as well. It really makes the difference with the more complex planes.
