With the announcement of Diablo 3 I want to get the first 2 games. So my question is, If I get the Battlechest of Diablo will I be able to play it on Vista?

I've just installed Diablo 2 again too. (Yes, because of the D3 announcement).
Workes fine for me on Vista, except for one thing.


The game takes about 2 to 3 min before it starts up.
But after theres no problems.

That's weird. It doesn't do that for me (running Vista x64.)

Are you running with the disc, or did you copy over your mpq files after the patch?

Started it first up with the disc, then tried to copy over the MPQ files.
Same result.

Running Vista 32bit
