With your system I wouldn't even try FS2k4. Your best bet would be to get 2002. Other than the weather (clouds) aspect, you really won't be losing much.

How much HD space 2002 takes I don't know, but it is less than 2k4.

I run both FS2k2 and FS2004 on my computer my specs are below... The main limiting factor for your system is the lack of graphics.
Reasonable results for FS2002 can be achieved with plenty of tweaking as long as you have @ least 64Mb on your graphics card. 128Mb I would say is the minimum for FS2004. After that its all down to memory and processor speed .... and on that count you have plenty more than I.

Best of luck and dont give up... I just upgraded a bit... and well if you check the screenshots forum some of my shots are there .... They aint as good as the guys with the hotshot highend machines ... but I think they do pretty well.

have fun

P.S. The minimum specs are on the boxes for FS2002/4
