Diablo 1

[Pic0o]

If you go to run Diablo 1 on a Windows 7 install, you'll likely see some miss-drawn colors. This guide can help with that.

 

Shorthand of it is:

Grab the 1.09 Patch from Blizzard

Make a batch file to load the game.

- this batch will kill explorer.exe while you play. While I don't know why, this fixes the color issue.

 

Here is the contents of the DiabloFix.zip from the link. You can paste the below into a Text doc, save it as a .bat in your game install folder.

@echo offtaskkill /f /im explorer.exediablo.exepausestart explorer.exeexit

 

Oh yeah, you also cannot register Diablo 1 on battlenet, as it doesn't have any CD Keys.
