Ok, I'm not sure what's changed in my system, but...
I got a new SATA harddrive and installed it, so I had to do a fresh install of FFVII and my mods... I installed the game and the remix patcher, and when I was all said and done (including adding the correct data to Aali's OpenGL driver and editing the registry, yadda yadda) I launch the game, and *poof*: no intro video, just a black screen... then I hit the button on my controller and it goes to the starting screen, but the hand and text are not updated to their high-res versions, and there is no graphic, just a BIG "EXTER" in the lower right of the screen... then I select New Game, and again, no video, black screen... I don't know WHAT's gone wrong now... anyone have any ideas???
