Now that is out of the way, I use two things that help with single play.

Try installing D2 and CE in a none boot partition. I'm lucky to have a second hard drive but have also have run it in a partition on the boot drive. This might solve the install problems with Vista and Windows 7. The program files folder is protected.

As for having expansion CDs;

I use a virtural cdrom to run both D2LOD & CE from the disk image. I did this after the expansion disk shatttewred and ruin the cdrom drive.

As for having seprate keys. . . .  If you only use it off-line not on the Bnet or CEnet, a few frineds might let you make images.  Of coarse being off-line, it might not matter.

Since I don't have Vista or Windows 7 you'll have to decide if you want to try installing in a separate partition, this might be a work around for UAC.

Good luck :wece:

Hi,

did you disabled UAC in vista?
do you run the program with admin permissions?

I have now disabled both of these,
 
Ive since removed the entire games, folders ect and done another fresh install and this time it installed right through without any errors but when i try to start the game i now get this error,

Thanks for your help

ChaosEmpire:
sounds like you have not the correct mixture of plugy.dll, chaosempire.dll and chaosempire.mpq, be sure to use all form 771b package
if you have a plugy folder in d2 folder..try renaming it
