Help with FF7 in WinXP
I've tried everything I could think of, but FF7 refuses to work properly. If i play in Win XP mode, major slowdowns going into/out of battle, and into/out of menu, same thing with Win2k and NT compatibility, if I play in Win 95/98 mode, thats fixed, but my game crashes and I can't use my controller.

Any help would be very much appreciated.
My system specs:
Radeon 9000 64 MB
Gigabyte 7VRXP motherboard
Athlon XP 1800+ 1.54 GHz CPU
256 MB DDR RAM
Anything else you need to know?
If there is another topic similar to this, if you could post a link here, that would be good too, provided that topic has a solution.
Thanks in advance.

Also tried software rendering mode in ALL compatibilities, but the game crashes after I load up a save file.
How do I do that? :-/
1. Right-click My Computer
2. Left-click on Properties
3. Click Advanced tab on System Prop window
4. Under Perfomance, click on Settings & this will open another window
5. Click Advanced tab on Performance Options window
6. Down at the bottom, for Virtual memory click the Change button
7. If not already clicked, click Custom size & set intial for 3072 MB & Max to 4096 MB.
This assumes you have the hard disk space to accompany a 3-4 GB page file. Give it a shot & let me know.

Will it work if I put the page file on my other partition? My C: drive is full..
