I think you need to download a new copy.


Seriously, it has installed correctly from your cd before?

Maybe you could not put such an evil OS on and then try to load Diablo.... revert back!!! save yourself

(yeah, i've never touched XP, and i don't plan to)

Ditto. I am still using 98. The windoze OSes seem to get worse and worse. I think it's time to start looking into Linux again.
