hey everyone
i downloaded the demo for FF7 today
and i extracted all the files, and apparently there are no installation needed... so i clicked on "Cloud" the icon to launch the game, the screen turned black, and the configuration thing popped up, like i should since it was my first time launching the game, and after i configered the screensize and other stuff, the game wont run, the game window just disappears... (i played FF8 demo yesterday on the same computer and it worked just fine)
here's what my configuration thing said

(i have directx 8.0 or 8.1 or 8.something)
i know its a pretty dated laptop but the game should run
and i have windows 2ooo
my display driver is NeoMagic MagicGraph128ZV/ZV+/XD driver...
what should i do?
i should download 3d accelerator?
if so, where can i download the latest version for free?
thanks for all you help in advance!
