ok i am not very computer smart when it comes to this technical stuff but my computer give me this error saying critical error has occurred while initializing direct draw. i have yet to even instal the hu mod to my folders. can someone help me get hu going :(?

When i ran my video test to try and swap to direct3d like in the other post it said something along the lines of my comp cant run d2.... i dont think this is true.

any ideas? where is kevin when i need him!

edit #1: Just tried running in windows xp compatibility mode and received the same error : error 22 a critical error has occurred while initializing direct draw grrr

Edit #2: d2 now runs in widow mode only. but my hell unleashed folder keeps saying put disk in the disk drive... so only my bnet d2 folder runs now. why so lame w7 or should i ask why so old d2...

check "Disable desktop composition" and "Disable visual themes" in compatibility tab.
As for disc... use loader and copy d2xvideo/d2xmusic.mpq from cd to D2 folder.
