I'm trying to play FF8 on vista and when I click the ff8 icon it goes into the program but then the screen just stays black and doesn't do ****, so I always have to do ctrl+alt+del to cancel it and I've done this atleast 30 times changing settings. I've put the compatability to windows xp clicking properties, I've downloaded some random ff patches, I've went o ff8config.exe and put it to renderer - I've done so many things and it still produces the same result with a black screen. Someone help me out and make this game work on Vista on my laptop. It's an acer aspire 3680-2472 intel celeron m processor 520 (1.6 ghz 533 mhz fsb, 1mb l2cache, intel graphics media accelerator 950). I don't even know if these specifications matter but I just wanna play the damn game.
