Have you tried turning on all the compatibility options?

Right click the .EXE >> Properties >> Compatibility tab



If that doesn't work, you can find some 'obscure' patches on the internet. Some are hard to find. These is the only 3 I know: http://www.avault.com/pcrl/patches_temp.asp?patch=ff8

If that doesn't work then you'll have to come up with some unconventional solutions. Maybe installing Win95 again. That's what I did to make it work.

Good luck.
