The software upgrade that came with FF8 is useless by itself, and there's no instructions for this shit or acknowledged anywhere that you need to first install the softsynth bundled with FF7. And if you weren't able to find a copy of FF7 for PC to do this with, you needed to buy just the software synth which was a fairly expensive paid package.
Most people just ended up playing with General Midi through the Microsoft GS Wavetable Synth included with Windows.
