Q u o t e:
Diablo II will not run anymore. I have it installed and moved it to my thumb drive and my portable HD for backup files and it will not run on either. It shows the "load" icon and then nothing. It did this before but saying something was wrong with a file before finally crapping out.
And I can't find anywhere in the store where I register my CD keys to download the CDs from them in case there's something wrong with mine. I'm on XP and I'm using both LoD and DII, with the 1.13c patch and the "no cd key" fix. It worked fine last night but I had to install the Diablo II classic (single player) on my comp before it would. After I turned it off and back on today - nothing. No matter what I do.
What is this and is it even fixable?
Blizzard created an online store which allows you to legally download games from their site. You do not need to purchase anything. You only need to enter your CD-Key into there site (A CD-Key only works once on their site), then your account can legally download the game.
Steps to Download Diablo II:
1) Go over to <
http://www.blizzard.com/store/>
2) Create an account and verify it, if you do not have one.
3) When your logged in, hit the Account link in the top-right.
4) There should be four tabs on the right side, click the one that says Games.
5) You should now be at, <
https://www.blizzard.com/account/management/games.xml>
6) Click Add New Game
7) Add your Diablo II CD-Key in the input box provided.
8) Repeat Step 6 and 7 for your Expansion CD-Key.
9) Now in your Games page, you should see Diablo II and Diablo II: Lord of Destruction.
10) Download the two downloaders (Choosing Mac or Windows).
11) Open up the classic D2 Installer, and choose a location for download.
12) Once completed, install it.
13) Repeat 11-12 for expansion.
Note: You are given a new rendered 26 character cd-key from the site that you must use for the installation.
