Is there a way to run Final Fantasy VII in a window in Windows XP?

I have the old Final Fantasy VII for Windows, and would like to run it in Windowed mode on my high resolution Windows XP system. It doesn't seem to support the -window flag. Any way around this?

Separate topics with commas, or by pressing return. Use the delete or backspace key to edit or remove existing topics.

I can't guarantee it will work, but try using DxWnd (http://www.nynaeve.net/?p=52). This forces games into a window by 'tricking' them into thinking they're full screen.

I've successfully used it with old games in the past - hope that helps!

Doesn't seem to work. A 640x480 window pops up on my screen, then closes again.

Sorry to hear it doesn't work - it isn't able to do all games. It does need the VC runtimes (linked on the same page) to run though, in case you missed this step - otherwise I'm out of ideas :(
