The image is loading fine for me, not sure why you are saying its expired (uploaded yesterday anyway, and loading in bpth threads its posted).

Its a lot to do with different setups ofcourse, and an Fx5500 is a completely different card from a 7800GTX. The latest drivers are all optimized for the seven series, not even so much for the 6 series and perhaps you can forget about the 5 series. Nvidia never had things right with the Fx series anyway, the nv30 (codename for 5 series) was quite a troublesome period for nVidia, and they only really managed to resolve all their issue with the launch of the nv40 (6 series).

Maybe you can manage an upgrade in the near future. If you have an AGP card, the new 6800GS has been getting great reviews, or the X800GTO from ATI. Both and basically recycled top of the line cards of previous generation, but would run SH3 on max settings without issue.
