Sweet! Congrats on getting a new computer, I know how good that feels

I eagerly await your test results.

I've also run across a rather baffling issue in FF8 recently. Sometimes all the text gets illegibally corrupted, and it stays that way if I load from a save state where it was corrupted, or if I just wait for the load screen to appear when I boot the game. The only way I've found to remedy it is to save, then quit and run the game with a different video renderer (Pete's D3D for instance), then load the game and make a savestate. Then I go back to Pete's OGL2 and load state, and the text is fine.

What do you think the best-looking shader is for FF8? I've been using a few different ones, and none have really been as good as I'd like.

I've also noticed that the rendered objects look a lot cleaner and sharper in Pete's D3D than in Pete's OGL2, but backgrounds are corrupted by blackness between texture transitions. I've managed to screw with the settings and get rid of most of the blackness, but it's still fairly abundant
