It would be beneficial if you told us what emulator you are using, what version of the emulator that you are using, what plugins are you using, and what are your computer's specs?
He's obviously using ePSXe. If you want a no hassle way of playing FF7 use pSX found here:

As Josh said, whenever you ask for help, you have to provide certain info so we can help you. So, please post it to receive a mode detailed help.
Eternal SPU 1.41 would be a good sound plugin. Pete's OGL or D3D, deppending of your video card for your video plugin.
If you want to learn how to configure your ePSXe emulator, check these threads as they contain detailed info on how to do it for some of the most popular games out there:

Pete's Soft Plugin works well too. I've been using that for some time now with ePSXe and even though it doesn't support all the special enhancements like the OGL and D3D plugins it runs a lot better then them.
srry bout not giving info
im using epsxe
my plugins are:
pete's d3d driver 1.76
epsxe spu core 1.5.2.
epsxe cdr wnt/w2k core 1.5.2.
and thats it hope this is enough info so i can get my answer
Ok, ePSXe 1.52 and not 1.60 is the way to go. As I said, to fix your sound problem, use Eternal SPU 1.41
Also, make sure to increase the offscreen drawing and framebuffer options in your video plugin config or you'll have probs with the battle menus not showing and make sure to check the special games fixes for this game in the the video plugin config.
What's your video card?
idk i dont think i hav one
Um...why is it everyone says they think they don't have one? If you didn't have one you wouldn't be able to see anything on the screen so of course you have one. Whether or not you have a good one is the real question.
ok then were can i find out were it is
Right-click on "My Computer" (either on the desktop or in the Start Menu in Win XP) and click "Properties". Select the "Hardware" tab at the top and then click "Device Manager". Click the + next to where it says "Display adapters" and it will show you what type of video card you have. For example mine says "NVIDIA GeForce Go 7600". Chances are you might have a generic Intel 3D accelerator like my grandparents' computers have but then again it could be something different.
i have a Intel (R) 82915G/GV/910GL Express Chipset
i hav no idea what this means hopely u do
I think it means you have an onboard video card. It was built into your motherboard. Normally, those kinds of cards aren't very good with PC gaming. Although, you don't always need an uborly powerful card to emulate older consoles.
Yep just as I thought it's a standard Intel graphics card. The only video plugin that will work for you is "P.E.Op.S. Soft Driver". The settings are basic. Here is a screenshot of what I have it set for:
[EDIT]
Most computers that you buy do come with onboard Intel graphics chipset unless you find one that says otherwise. With laptops everything is "onboard" if you know what I mean. They still have to use the same archetecture as an actual PCI or AGP card would though. Also Intel graphics chipsets are good for basic games but not for anything hi-end. I was actually able to play Tomb Raider: Legend on an Intel card with all the settings at their lowest. I was still surprised that it ran at all though.

This is what you have:
http://support.intel.com/products/ch...10gl/index.htm
You should go there and make sure you have the latest drivers for your chip.
Also, Intel GFX chips can handle either the Soft, OpenGL or D3D video plugins for PSX emulators.
The only one that won't work with them is the OpenGL 2 plugin.
EDIT--
ACTUALLY, ON SECOND THOUGHT you should email Intel to ask if those are the correct drivers for your system, as some computers use OEM chips:
