Hi, just got this game for my computer... it runs fine but i have noticed the background graphics are awful; very pixulated and blurry. Is there anyway to fix this without using the patch that changes the ways the charcters look? If not, no big deal but it would be nice. Here is some info on my system:
Vista home premium
Intel 2duo core
1.50ghz
2gig ram

I am not sure if I am or am not. I know that I have the NVIDIA and TNT boxes checked in my configuration but I don't know if I actually have the card installed. Forgive me but I am not too computer literatem thanks for any patience.
System requirements are:
Final Fantasy VII has the following minimum system requirements:
Pentium 133 w/ supported 3D accelerator card (4Mb video memory or greater)
or P166 w/out supported 3D accelerator card (see below)
Intel or 100% Intel-compatible CPU
32 Mb RAM 4x CD-ROM drive
Windows 95
DirectX 5.1 (included on Installation CD)
DirectMedia 5.2 (included on Installation CD)
...as far as I know, I meet and exceed all of these requirments. Here are my stats:
FFVII's readme file also gives me this information:
Supported 3D Accelerator Video Cards
Final Fantasy VII currently supports 3D accelerator video cards that
pass the criteria contained in the FF7 Configuration graphic card test.
At release time, the game supports the cards that contain any of the
following chipsets:
3Dfx Voodoo
3Dfx Voodoo2
3Dfx Voodoo Rush
3Dlabs Permedia2
ATI Rage Pro
Intel I740
In addition, the game will support the following chipsets when they
ship later this year:
Matrox G200
NEC PowerVR2
up your resolution to at least 800x640. change the video driver so reflects intel not nvidia. check game site for patches & updates to reflect current onboard video & windows vista. is video set at 16 colors, 256 colors or 16bit, 32bit?

my resolution is at 640x480 16bpp. I am not sure how to adjust this and I am running at 256 colors. How do I change the driver to reflect intel and not nvidia?
