(It probably should. Or in Help.)

You need an emulator, do you have an emulator?? I think that's it.

Only if you are running the PSX version. The PC should be stand alone. I don't know what the problem could be but considering it says file system that makes me want to say you are not formated as NTFS and are formated as FAT32...somehow.

I have the game at home...I think I still have all 4 discs also.

This should be in FFVII.
As I've said before, FFVII has all sorts of problems running on Windows 2000 (FAT32 or NTFS). I have never seen a succesful case... You need to change your OS if you want to play FFVII on the PC.

FFVII ran fine on my PC with win2000. Although it wasn't exactly "legal", it was still the PC version.

But I'm just excellent.

I'm sure Eidos have a patch to download for running FFVII on anything higher than Windows 98.
