If you have access to another CD ROM drive you might want to try that out :/ The copy protection thingy Blizzard uses has trouble with some drives. If you go into the properties of a shortcut to the game, is there a "Compatibility options" tab? Try playing around with that. Or, if you have any other suggestions, I'd be happy to try them - it's been months that I've been trying to get this stupid thing to run. Can anyone point me to the info I'm looking for? At this point, it's worthwhile to try almost anything, given the amount of time I've spent on this. I've been assuming up till now the problem was my combo drive, since so many other people had problems with them and D2, but I've tried all the commom fixes for my system - should I get my disk replaced? I remember reading somewhere that Blizzard will replace your disk for $10US, but I couldn't find anything about it on their support site.

updated firmware for Samsung SN-308B CDRW/DVD-Rom (this said it would fix problems with Diablo 2 - exactly what problem wasn't specified, but my problem is exactly the same as before the update)Ī couple of times, I stopped before the LoD install and tried to start D2 by itself, and it ran, which makes me think there's something wrong with my LoD disk, despite the fact that the install goes fine and both the install and the game ran fine on my desktop (I've since uninstalled them).

updated video and sound drivers to latest from manufacturer's site.

It's really frustrating that none of their instructions are written for XP, when the LoD case lists XP as one of the supported OS's.

CD-Rom drive letter fix N/A (can't follow directions - not written for XP, can't find anything similar to change)Įmailing Blizzard only resulted in their repeating the above fixes, one at a time, and telling me to disable my joystick (no gameport joystick installed), and finally they just ignore me since I've told them I've tried all their fixes.Intel Ultra ATA fix N/A (not listed as Ultra ATA controller).Sync data transfer - Primary and Secondary IDE channels set to DMA if available.Protected Mode drivers fix N/A (can't follow directions - not written for XP, can't find anything similar to change).

User ID set as "Computer administrator" for XP.I've tried everything on the Blizzard Support page for this problem: I'm one of those who had the "Please insert play disc" problem with D2, using a CDRW/DVD-Rom.
