Do you use Windows XP? Some people are also having the same problems. You might also need to upgrade your graphics drivers. If none of that works, let me know, I have a savegame I can send you.

yea, i have the same problems, it sends me back to windows during long animations...i just assumed it was a scratched disk, cuz my disk 3 didn't have as many scratches and kicked me out a lot less...

Yes that may be the problem, I think that XP isn't the greatest, I thought 98 2nd edition was the best... Well anyways try closing all other prgrams before running it also, yer RAM might be getting sucked up...

pro bum, absolutely. I'll get kicked out of the game during long animations sometimes too. However, I'm always able to clean the CD or whatever and get it to work. So if anyone has any trouble and just can't get it to work, just send your savegame to me and I'll get it past the trouble spot.

i forgot that detail... im using 98 SE... i dont think that the disk does it, bc its a new cd. the graphics drivers are all updated from 3dfx... 128 ram can be provoking this?... also... where can i d/l the EARLIEST savegame (the 1� one you can make on the whole game) so i can override the problem...

thanks for the quick reply.. i appreciate your concern.

I haven't been able to find a site that has comprehensive FF8 saves (I found one with some, but not at the beginning.), however if you post your e-mail I can shuttle a savegame at the first save point to you.

This whould go GREAT if you guys didnt have Windows XP:p Just go back to the old Win98 and EVERYTHING should work out!!

I have a crapy, AMD500Mhz, 256MB ram, 1 hardisk, 1 dvd-rom, and a MatroxG400 Millenium card!! The game works FINE for me (maybe i should upgrade my graphic card:/). So if it doesnt work on win98 and you have a better pc then mine... then i dont know!

->Maybe you have a scrath on the cd? Sure, i have a LOT of scraches on my cd but it works!
->Maybe you have a lot of other shit on your pc messing things up...
