64 GB RAM? Excuse me but I'm gonna go with "you're mistaking 64 bit OS for 64 GB ram" here

64GB ram is still a bit unusual for a laptop or even a desktop.
That's something I would expect more from a server rather than a gaming machine.
Are you sure it's RAM and not an SSD HDD?
What type of error message are you receiving?
Is the game crashing with a specific message?
Post your app.log.

What size is your page file?
Are you running any other programs?
Have you recently updated drivers?

Sorry if this sounds rude, but who orders a laptop with 64gb of ram, if they don't know what a pagefile is?No other programmes are running at all, updated all drivers to latest I am not sure what you mean by page file pit.

It is not a laptop it is a desktop you could not fit 64 gig in a laptop,I do now know what a page file is now the size says 8000mbSorry if this sounds rude, but who orders a laptop with 64gb of ram, if they don't know what a pagefile is?

Ah, well I've never worked with more than 16gb of ram, so I'm not sure if the standard rule applies, but normally the page file should be 1-2x as large as your physical memory. So if the standard rule applies, your page file should be anywhere from 64-128gb.It is not a laptop it is a desktop you could not fit 64 gig in a laptop,I do now know what a page file is now the size says 8000mb

The company I got it from overclockers adjusted it because they said that you do not need to have the page file at that size like you said 1 to 2x the size of your main ramAh, well I've never worked with more than 16gb of ram, so I'm not sure if the standard rule applies, but normally the page file should be 1-2x as large as your physical memory.

64 GB of RAM? Pardon me, but this is highly unlikely. While not impossible, just unlikely. And if you DO have as much as 64 GB, then I would need someone to tell me why the game won't run. Unless your graphic card is uncompatible. And post your APP.LOG using
[ code ]code tags (put text here)[ /code ]
And get rid of the space in the []'s

Some older software requires a page file.
Sure, setting the page file lower theoretically forces Windows to use the much faster RAM, but it will also prevent a lot of old software from running.
You may need to increase the size of the page file or change it back to system managed in order to run FF7.

I think it might just be an issue with how the game detects how much ram you have. It might be overflowing and detecting it incorrectly since you have such a huge amount of ram, and likely more then the developers of the game ever anticipated anyone having.
Perhaps actaully try taking some sticks out of your system and see if that helps, it nots like having more than 8gb or so has any effect on gaming anyways.
FF7 itself is a 32-bit exe, and thus absolutely cannot address more then 2gb of ram no matter what. Mine personally, with a 100% install of bootleg and max settings uses about 200mb-300mb tops..
re: Pagefile, no you absolutely do not want a 64gig pageflie, thats just a huge waste of hard drive space, regardless of how much memory you have. Any poorly coded old apps that care about it are 32bit, thus the same rules apply to them, they cant use over 2gb, so any pagefile over 2gb is plenty. I use 4gb regardless of my ram on any system with 4b or higher, and it works fine on everything.
And im not sure why some of you guys are so incredulous about how much ram he has. If someones crazy and rich enough to buy a GTX690, they certainly would not have a problem buying the maximum amount of ram either, which is 64gb for win7/most platforms, and really not that expensive these days. It's not worth it as it will have no affect on anything he does, but for people who don't know a lot about computers, im sure its actaully not that uncommon for them to want the "most". and in this case, may even be the reason hes getting that error.
So yea, try taking out 4 of your 8 sticks, (take out one from every other slot to ensure you still have dual/quad channel), and see if that helps. Or even all but 1 stick, as even 8gb is way overkill for ff7.
PS: Thanks for bootleg, mines running great even after multiple installs trying lots of options.

I have Bootleg .040 pretty much ready for release.
Everything seems to work for whatever that's worth.
In order to stick with the release schedule (before the end of the world) I had to cut two features: individually customizable music tracks and field weapon that matches the battle weapon.
Maybe those features will stake make it into a future release.
Do any of the testers have any final complaints before this 6!+(# drops?

Awesome yea release it.
I have a simple feature request for 41 tho:
For the menu overhaul, expose more options. Specificly: The "show all status effects in menu". I saw that eq2alyzas video and had no idea why I didnt see that show up in my game.. But figured it out, had to install MO.exe over top my bootleg install again, and enable the show all status effects. Though its complicated to do, especially with the multi-mode bootloader thing going.
Possibly bug/issue I noticed also (not necessarily with bootleg, maybe from the original mod itself):
"reasonable difficulty" has no effect on enemy difficulty at all. Maybe its bugged or just doesnt do anything beside changing steal rates (though I noticed no real difference in that from reasonable to hardcore either, other then hardcore being harder on the enemies which it has boosted levels up a lot - which seems like most of them atm, tho not all)..
But yea I checked many enemies and everyone had the exact same hp/dmg/level/etc. Where as I after I try hardcore, and suddenly the same enemie has freakin 4x the HP, hits 4 times as hard and has double the level, plus most encounters have added enemies, and more often inflict more status effects. EG: I switched it on at the chocobo farm, a Levikro on reasonable was a joke, 1 shot it and it hit for very little.. Put on hardcore, they have 4x hp, nearly 1 shot my character,s and when I do survive, they quickly put my whole party in berserk, which I had no items to protect against at that point.. Was nearly impossible for a simple trash monster battle due to that. Tried it again later at Gogaga villa with a lot more items and materia and its not as crazy tho.
Would be nice to have something in between.. As to me it feels like regular = Easy and Hardcore = Very hard.

Yay, the Reasonable Difficulty bug is already fixed.
The Menu Overhaul option "show all status effects in menu" was called "Status Icons" in the option list.
I changed it to "Show Status" for clarity.
Otherwise Bootleg .040 is code complete.
