Two things:

1) Sapphire cards run hot. Not a big fan of them because of this.

2) Sometimes just replacing the card doesn't solve the issue. If this card pulls more juice than the last card, can your psu handle it? If not then you'll be looking for yet another part down the road. It really can be a vicious cycle with an older pc. I've learned from trial and error over the years.

You might want to check the power output on the power supply. It's usually the last number printed on the specs on the label. Anyway, a much older card will do as well, but I'm not aware of anything wrong with the X1650 aside from that it won't work with Windows 2000. Your system is pretty new by FFXI standards, so as long as you get a decent Radeon or GeForce card you should be good.
