Symptoms
In Final Fantasy VII Configurator I can't choose Hardware Acceleration in Renderer section. The test box on the right say's that system failed in 8-bit Paletted Textures test.
Causes
This is a very known problem. You probably have some modern graphic card, which Final Fantasy VII doesn't support, and that's why it won't let you select Hardware Acceleration.
Solution
Eidos provided a patch that changes executable version to 1.02. You can download it from links below:
You also should update your graphic drivers to newest ones. Furthermore, Aali's OpenGL Driver fixes more issues on even more recent hardware. Thanks to Aaron for hosting these patches.
