Title: FF7 crash @ start in XP
Post by: vegetamaker on 2009-03-17 12:47:29

First at all: hello and thanks for all good guides and stuff that i readed here.

Now de question. I tryed (i guess) all posibility for make my FF7 work good. No care what patch i found and installed, the result is always de same: FF7 start, i only hear the Eidos video and after it finish the screen continue black and thats is all. After it i must reboot my computer. (I can see the videos in windows btw)

My computer is like this:

Windows XP Home SP3
AMD Athlon(tm) 64 X2 Dual
Core Proccessor 4400+
2.3Ghz, 2Gb Ram
Graphic Card Ati Radeon 3800 Series

Just for check that my Cds isnt just bad i installed a Virtual PC with windows 98 and it work but... just very very bad (bad music, slow, all in graphics config fail...).

Well, thats is all.

PD: I tryed donwlad patch in spanish (thats is my FF7 version) from FAQ above that all spanish links are broken ^^

Thanks you.

EDIT: Well, i was looking more posts (page 7 or somehting like it) and looking for those called "ff7 help" or something likes that ^^. Finally i found a post that said "uninstall all codecs, reinstall game and K-lite codec pack wtih all codecs" and... it worked! I will continue trying it but... atleast it worked.

Now i must install new patchs (chocobo race, patch 1.02 for XP, combat arena fix, slow minigames, etc and check if it continue working haha)

maybe the patches aren't compatible with the spanish version
