Troubleshooting / Installation and Game application on windows 10
« on: 2022-06-13 01:05:01 »
Hey everyone,
Another question regarding the issue with running Final Fantasy 7 on windows 10.
So i have the original 1998 discs and tried to install them on my win 10 pc.
I use an external usb hard drive to read the discs.
It accepts the discs - reads them and i can access the first window where i can press: install game, direct x, etc.
If i try to install the game - my screen fades for a second to black and closes the exe.
Installing direct x and the other additions is possible.
So i tried a workaround and installed the game via Tom’s Installer. But the game exe has the same issue - the screen becomes dark for a secone and the app closes. Doesn’t matter if i run it as admin or regular.
I tried all possible config settings, but nothing seems to work.
Regarding the config setting - there is the „fail“ notice on the 8 bit option - everything else has a pass. Couldn‘t find a fix for that.
Also my driver might be to advanced, but nvidia doesn‘t provide any support vor the riva 128 - so i dunno how to update it otherwise.
Also i wanted the vanilla experience and get the thing to work without aalis launcher or something. So that i could play regular with my old discs.
Has someone encountered similar or even the same issues?
Happy about any sugguestion and tipps
Please let me know if and when, which information do you guys need regarding my pc to fully get the picture.
Kind regards
