BladeBreak 0 Posted January 24, 2001 Anyone get FF8 for PC working under Win2k? My copy installs fine, and runs the beginning of the game fine, but it crashes every time when i get to the center of the market square in that first town you have to attack (real early on Disc 1). Tried using software mode, turning off graphics, installing the update patch, and nothing seems to help. Tech support won't be much of a help since all they'll say is "You shouldn't be running this under W2k" Any help would be appreciated. Share this post Link to post
Bursar 0 Posted January 25, 2001 Well, I can confirm that it works as my copy ran fine (I don't play it now seeing as I 'lost' my save game files during a disk formatting accident). Best bet would be to make sure you have the latest drivers for all of your hardware, including any motherboard related drivers. It'd be useful if we knew what your hardware was, as someone might then be able to say "Ah, you need patch X with that hrdware to get it to work properly." Share this post Link to post
BladeBreak 0 Posted January 25, 2001 Arg. silly me, not posting more information My system specs are: Celeron II 500 mhz processor Asus P3V133 mboard Voodoo 3 2000 vid card (PCI) 128 mb ram, 10.5 gig hd. Running Win2k Pro with SP1 and DX8 I'm not sure what version the Voodoo drivers are... I seem to remember a tab in the Display properties that tells you for W9x, but I don't see one here.
