Well, i installed ff7 the other day because i missed it and i had removed it from my computer not too long ago.

During the installation it asked me if i wanted to install the truemotion 2.0 codecs, which i did... The installer popped up installed and dissapeared very quickly, then the FF7 Installer was kind of... stuck (longest i waited was 10 minutes for it before i closed it).

So i exited the installer and uninstalled ff7, retried and the same thing happened, i ignored it ended the process and tried to boot up ff7, it boots up to a black screen, no music, nothing and i cant ALT + TAB out of it.

Does anyone know the problem?

 

Hmm, well i've been running the installer for about 20 minutes now and it says finishing installation and its been sitting there ever since.


I cant even move the box, i have to use task manager to close it. Although it says its still responding..

EDIT: Its been running for about, erm 4 hours now....

 

Its the same torrent release i used about a year or two ago.
And i did have it running fine back then.
And i used to own a legit copy but the discs were damaged badly =[

 

Whats the exact torrent release? I dont want a link, just a name. Was it Final Fantasy VII Ultima Edition?

 

whoa! didn't know FF7 was on PC!

strange it doesnt give an error. try the official forums?

 

how do i manually install the truemotion codecs?

 

with that i can now hear a brief bit of audio with a black screen but still no luck, unless i installed them wrong.
