Error: 22??

[cheez_man]

Hi, I have a problem with my d2 game and i was wondering if anybody could help me. Whenever i start d2 it takes a couple seconds to start then it goes to the dark screen to start the intro, but it never starts, and it closes d2 and it has a little bar that says "error:22 theres a problem with your d2" and i dont get it because weve tried 2 reinstall it but that never worked and when me and my bro did the videotest it said "THIS COMPUTER CAN NOT RUN DIABLO 2!!"

Well anyways if u have any information reguarding this ide like to know, Thanks for your time

OK, First what windows are you running? That could be a factor if its some old piece of shit but w98 + should be fine. Most likley the problem is your video card is fryed or not installed properly (make sure you have one!). If it is installed & running fine its probably old and not up to par for d2. Buy a new one, pop it in get it goin'.

Make sure your video drivers are updated and you have the latest version of DirectX installed on your machine.
