I will try to write this in many details I can, all I can say it it VERY
frustrating:
Problem: Game crashes in scene when Squall and Rinoa see Ragnarok in space
Specs on what I tested crash: Nx9010 laptop, P4 2.8 ghz with 2 card: Matrox
Millennium II and ATI Radeon 9550 and one more computer
I tried: - every possible DirectX, lowering hardware acceleration in
Windows, changing to software rendender, patching (1.1 and 1.2) and many
more stuff.
I read dozen of website with FFVIII support, including EA support

Like I said, none of that helped... Does anyone have the same problem as me?
If not, I will send my save point to someone just to pass that scene, and
then he could send it back to me. That is all I can think of, I hope
somebody will do that.

Thank you!
