I've just recently aquired FF7 for the PC, but i think there is a bug or sumthin in the files 'cause i cant get to the chocobo races to get out of prison in the Golden Saucer. Has anyone had this problem before? Or is this just my luck in getting a badass glitch?

Help a brother out here

I'm not sure. But I know ~spoiler~ after Aeris death, get the key to Midgar Sector 5 in Bone Village and go to the Church. Aeris' ghost won't disappear. It will stay by the flower bed and I believe you can talk to the ghost.

the thing is like ill go to race, the music plays, then it shuts off and says something about an error. Is this cause i got XP?

Try reinstalling the game. If that doesn't work, then you need a different Windows Program, or your game is messed up.

I don't think its cause of your windows...you know, there are quite solid...but they can break if someone throw a baseball ball on it....just joking!

No I don't think its because of Window XP. It may be the computer or the game...most likely the game.

It is because of windows xp. There's a patch out there to fix that, but I'm too lazy to find it.

you need the chocobo race patch, search it up on yahoo

Yep i got the file right here.
just search your favorite peer-to-peer network.
filename: FFVIIXP.zip 8,94Mb

Playing the pc version would be interesting if only to turn the game upside down with a little creative scripting

thanks yall for the info it was just the damn patch.
