FF7 for PC, Cosmo Canyon hang AGONY

Hi all,

I recently dug out my FF7 discs and started up a bid for a perfect game, last time i played it was on an old Windows 95 desktop (RIP); this time it is on a Dell latitude D600 with XP.

Imagine my agony when i encountered the Cosmo canyon hang! i've tried all the recommended things (changing the hardware acceleration fiddling with the resolution and the Truemotion drivers/settings, trying GYPD (or whatever it was called) to skip the FMV and finally putting all the videos onto the HDD and editing the registry). So i've come to the end of my tether.

Does anyone have another solution to try or have a working installation of FF7 and would be willing to get me through this annoying problem if i email them my save file or something? Failing that just some tails of your woe would ease my pain :)

I was really getting into this game again and it pains me to have to give up on it, crisis core is no substitute.

Will.

Have you tried JENOVA's mod ? It's a mod that was specifically designed to skip that part.Gamer4Iife

oh, I totally forgot you could use mods, it actually might work.

You're lucky enough to play your PC version up to Cosmo Canyon. I can't tolerate playing my FF7 PC and FFVIII PC versions with my widescreen LCD... The graphics/images are all stretched and it looks very ugly. :cry:

Btw, yeah. Try JENOVA mod. I've tried it when I'm not yet using LCD screed. ;)
