Diablo 2: LOD Backup Help

[Foru2ctoo]

Hey guys. After much testing and trying I am now asking for help. I have attempted to use various of the "No-CD" patches and they'll load the game, but the claimed "b.net" support does not work. I also tried out many of the loaders which allow a backup CD to be used, but "b.net" support, as claimed, was in fact unsupported.

Either method, no-CD or backup CD, will load the game yet neither can achieve a successful connection with battle.net. Both methods result in a battle.net error message "Cannot Identify Product Version" when in fact I had patched to the latest version, 1.08.

I have given up on trying to get the game to work with a no-CD patch and am focusing on creating a successful backup CD. I have seen two ways posted here and tried them both to no avail. One was to use CloneCD and the other to use CDRWin. Neither backup could load up the game without a loader file.

I'm asking all you guys who have successfully created a working Diablo 2: LOD backup CD to help me, and all the other people here who have encountered the same problem and are now at a deadend. Thanks for reading. Any help will be greatly appreciated.
