On the other hand so you bought the game when it was new like back in the 90's lol cool!!! I wanted to know if on the diablo cd, (Original) "when it came out" If it had any diablo previews on the disc, or maybe a warcraft preview of 2 tides? When I say diablo preview, or blizzard demo I mean one like this [clip] ??? Please let Me know if it has that or something else for that matter. :thanks:
I checked. There's an executable named BLIZDEMO.EXE on the cd which first shows a preview/trailer of the Warcraft Battlechest (Warcraft, Warcraft II, Warcraft 2 expansion), which shows the orcs prepping for battle, then storming into a throneroom (I think the king of Stormwind's? I remember from Arthas' book that the king of Stormwind was killed). It then shows a small abandoned battlefield with an orc still going berserk punching a dude/corpse in the face.
After that is a preview of Starcraft which shows a bunch of rednecks on a space station/satellite that get destroyed by a disintegration ray of what looked like a protos spaceship (kinda hard to make out). Seriously the way it started out I thought it was a trailer for Redneck Rampage (which, iirc, Blizzard had a hand in making).
Neither of which I can find on youtube.
I remember warcraft ship/air balloon, or ship cinematic, and diablo being only at version 1.00, or somethin, I remember when I frist played Diablo 1. I was 10ish, or 11yrs old, and was getting ready to kill lazarus, but the games was really hard I didnt have enough gold to buy hp pots, So I quite. Than in summer 2000 I was playing diablo 1 on my ps1, killed lazarus, but never finished the game But Still Love the game to this very day. BAD A$$ GAME it is
I'm still playing my original (bought maybe a month or two after the game first came out) Diablo 1 cd and I can run it just fine in Vista. Is Windows 7 compatibility really that much worse?
Hey Ivaron, No windows 7 compatibility is not such a bad thing, as compatibility properties is on any microsoft os that is for games and some apps! Blizzard must of come out with a quick patch, for the older version of the game.. On the other hand so you bought the game when it was new like back in the 90's lol cool!!!

I've got a copy that won't run with Windows 7 that I would be happy to part with if anyone wants it.
Nektu, if you have a copy that came with the battle chest, it will run on seven if your copy is older! It wont but, for info on how to make diablo run with out color problems, read my post in diablo/hellfire Windows 7 and Diablo 1 (merged threads)
EDIT: Nektu how old is old, I mean is your copy of diablo, from when it first came out if it is do you still have the old box and everything?
