O.K. so I have this game and I wanna install it. When I go to setup.exe it gives me a menu and I choose "install and play". When it is installing, it gives me a @#^% message in black:

"Please insert the Diablo CD into your CD-ROM and press "O.K." :crazy:

WTF do they want? :eeeeeh: The CD is IN ALREADY! I am installing it as we speak, from what do you think I'm istalling it???:eeeeeh:
What do I do??? :blink:

edit:

Also note that the spawned version of it works.

Damaged / dirty CD, presumably. Clean its surface with a dry rag and see if it works then.

try putting the cdrom in lowest driveletter that is a cdrom

What do you mean by that? I only have 1 cdrom.

I cleaned the CD, but nothing. Maybe its because the game is written onto a cdrw, which has been used lots of times?

edit:

I get this message if I cancel the "putting in disk routine":

Diablo was unable to open a required file. Please ensure that the Diablo disc is in the CD-ROM drive. If this problem persists, try uninstalling and reinstalling Diablo using the program "SETUP.EXE" on the Diablo CD-ROM.
The Problem occured while trying to load a file
diabdat.mpq


Maybe Diablo1 was a 2 CD game? :blink:

maybe it's a copy protection kicking in ?
not all games can simply be copied.

I tried to copy the UNLOADABLE file diabdat.mpq but nothing happened, I still got that message. :cry:

Do you have Diablo? Maybe your installation is different?

Well, I downloaded the game's ISO image and burned it onto a cdrw. Maybe there was an error? I dont think there can be a copy protection system of a disk like that.

try to load an iso image in to alcohol 120
...maybe you burned it wrong, happens sometimes

I dont have that prog, so I burnt it with nero image recorder.
Should I try again with this one? :blink:

it may help, but iam not sure, maybe downloading crack would help better
type diablo crack download in to goolgle and you gets loooooooooooots of links

btw nero can emulate virtual drive too
