Your username leaves room for speculation.
So I will ask you this, is your FF8 a pirated edition? If so you won't receive much help at these forums. Piracy is not supported here.

Second of all, you need to add a little more meat to your post, (Such as: what are your system specs? What other mods for FF8 do you have currently installed?
Things along those lines.) if you wish for us to offer you any form of help.

As it is, it could be anything. :P.

1st off: i did not pirate this game
2nd its an old game, i bought it back when it first came out, when windows 98 was new. now, i am using windows 7, ive used the compatibility and changed it to 98/me, run as Admin, and i changed the resolution/graphics.
3rd so now ive finished the first disk, and when i put in the second, FF8.exe has stopped working message, appears and the game crashes...any help? ;D

Hm, I don't know, I have Windows 7 -64 bit, and it works fine for me. Got to the last disc no problem.

But I am using Aali's drivers, maybe that is why? *shrugs*

the one thing i really love about windows is that they will shut down your programs and not give you the reason why the program crashed. I am sorry for wasting your time, i found the 1.2 patch and the game has been working. Sorry  :mrgreen:

Great to see you got the game working.

For future reference, it's called a DISC not a DISK.

Wow you are serious about the disc/disk difference. Very well I'll help you, if you want but I'm sure you can handle it.
