Yeah, I tried all that. I tried 1.52,1.60,1.70, PSXfin, and another one. I think I figured out the problem. I think it was the fact that I was using the RT version of windows 7(Rockers?Rutgers? team version) A friend of mine has the RC version and it works fine for him. Anyway, I already ghosted my system back to vista and am having to start over on my games 
100+ hours of gameplay gone.... FFVIII,FF Tactics, Parasite Eve, Tales of Destiny, and other ones I have to start over. Shed a tear for my fallen games and lost comrades. Pour one out for my homies. Anyway, Thankyou for your responses and best of luck. I may or may not try the RC version, but if I do, I now know how to back up save states and transfer memory cards (DOH!!!!!!!!)
edit:
I don't think I can run FF VIII as an ISO because its an MDF file ripped from my disc. Unless there is a way to convert it....there has to be because there are iso's available and they had to come from discs at some point. But it is irrelevant. My friend tried it on his Windows 7 RT comp and had the same issue I did, But his home comp runs the RC and it works fine. thanks again.
