I'm going to reinstall the Aali's custom driver and see if that helps..

EDIT: didn't help.. :/

Also, when i open up Config and i click on graphics, i see this


If you can't read it it says "Could not locate ff7.exe, FF7 is not installed correctly."

My ff7.exe is in my folder! I never moved it or changed it!

So. I didn't install any new mods because i realized that my resolution did not change, So i downloaded opengl-0.7.11b and followed the steps. Now my ff7 resolution is 1600x900. Now there is a new problem where my screen is white and all i see is cloud and the save point. but now its in high resoultion 
Is there a way to fix the white screen? Also when i start ff7.exe it skips the eidos loading animation and the squaresoft one. Please help me!
Btw, somewhy i cant get a screenshot of the white screen with cloud and a savepoint. When i try to paste the SS in paint, it turns black.

Edit: BTW, I am using the custom driver on config.

Hi, I'm a big fan of Final fantasy vii, so i decided to buy the PC version.   
 and when i try to install with the disk, i open setup, click install, then the next screen doesnt show up, and i'm back at my desktop. I tried setting compatablity to all options on the setup.exe, but none of those work. PLEASE help me! I tried to find a fix, but no one seems to have one, and i found i am not the only one with this problem!

I am running:
 Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit
Acer Aspire X3400
AMD Athlon II X3 435 Processor 2.90 GHz
4.00GB RAM
NVIDIA GeForce 9200

PLEASE HELP ME!!

Also: I've checked many websites, and i found that quite a few people have this problem. 

EDIT: Sorry didn't read all of the solved topics. Will try this solution http://forums.qhimm.com/index.php?topic=11790.0

EDIT 2: Okay. The fix above worked. I installed the game but now i have a new problem. Here are some screenshots:


Beginning mission...



In the first battle..



And in the main menu..

Does anyone know how to fix this?? Please let me know!

The cutscenes work fine.

when i have controll of my character and  i walk around, everything is black except for the characters.

I haven't installed any patches yet. Did i mess up the installation or what??
