With a new card 256MB is just enough to play at the moment.(tested). Your "FX 5500" is a older card so won't work for playing the simulator.
Only buying a new graphics card could fix this problem.

The current version requires DX9 with shader model 3.0, the GeForce 5000 series support only DX9 with shader model 2.0. For a card that is over 11 years old and for which the driver support has been discontinued for 8 years already this isn't that surprising. I tend to aim to support videocards dating back 5 years at the time, at the moment the 10 year old GeForce 6000 series are still supported (as minimum) mainly due to the fact that development of the current version started roughly 5 years ago, for the Beta 4 series you should consider the GeForce 400 series (not to be confused with GeForce 4000) as minimum requirement.
