I'm not the best-qualified to assess your system, but I'll tell you that my first setup had a 1.3 CPU, a 64M card and only 256M RAM , and it ran FS9 pretty poorly even at the default settings. I've since upgraded to a 256M card and added another 256M of RAM, and it's much better, but I suspect with more RAM and a faster CPU, it would be even better. It all depends on how you want it to look and run, but I'd advise a better gfx card and a little more RAM, at the very least. A 40GB hard drive is more than adequate: I've got FS9, CFS3, and IL2/PF installed, and it's not too bad, although I need to expand now to have room for other stuff.
Uh... my bad; looking again at your post, I see you said FS2000, not 2004... I've never had that one, so ... Anyway, CFS will probably run fine on a system like that, but if you can afford it, you'd be well off to go with at least a 128MB video card, and if you're planning to ever upgrade to FS2004, then what I said above is worth considering.
