Diablo II LOD with patch 1.09v loaded
I have been playing the game for almost 2 weeks now off and on. No problems to speek of except when I exit out of the game somtimes the screen goes balnk and I have to hit ESC. Well I finaly made it to DEABLO and beat him and the game lockes up on me! Thought my system may have just made a goof so went back and beat him again and it did the same thing. Freezes up as soon as he dies and then the screen goes blank. I have to shut down my computer and restart to get back into it!
Game is running good on my system have noteced what I think is a glitch. The set items that you find in the game have been showing up duplicates i.e. brest plate gloves sword. Then I go back in to an area and find the same brest plate again.
Any ideas?

I once owned a computer with an AMD-K6 and it wouldn't run D2. Had all the requirements, and no matter how I tweaked it, the game wouldn't run (similar lock-up and blank screen errors as you describe). I took the computer back to the store and a sales guy said it very well could be the processor.
At any rate, the standard suggestions for troubles like yours: Uninstall and reinstall the game. Defrag your hard drive. Make sure you have as few background programs running as possible when you play.
You didn't download any non-Blizzard patches, or any hacks/cheats/trainers, did you? If so, remove them from your system.
Good luck.. and keep us updated!

ok I have updated all drivers for this COMPAQ now and have deleted Diablo II from the computer. I ran a Scan disk and a DEFRAG and then loaded Diablo II and LOD again and then downloaded the 1.09v patch. Went back and killed Diablo again and the computer locked up again. Gave me a error message: Error reading CD rom A0EB-3E13. I also closed all non esential programs so I would have enough memory. Kind of strange the game runs great up untill I kill him off!!!!!

Considering the error, it could be a scratched or dirty CD. Try cleaning it and see if that helps. Also, are you fully installing the game or doing a partial install? Full installs are the best way to go if you have the space for them.
What type of CD-ROM is it? If it's a multibeam drive like the Delta's or Kenwood's, you might be able to update the BIOS for it.

Do have a small blemish on the CD. Im going to try and take it back and see if I can get a new one. The CD drive is a COMPAQ. I do have a Mitsumi R/RW drive on my machine but havent tryed to use it for game yet!
Will try to get new LOD disk and see if it works.
Thanks
