diablo 2 exp and win xp

hello. can anyone tell me if it is possible to install diablo2 and exp onto the same computer which is running windows xp?

and if it is possible can you tell me how to do this i tried and it just wants to play the cd not reinstall it.

Sorry, but i'm not sure I understood what you want.

You want to install one D2 and one D2exp on the same comp. right ?
you 'll need 2 different cd_key for D2 and one for Lod if you want to play both at same time.


About ZinXP no problemo.

i have 2 copies of diablo 2 and diablo 2 exp both with legit cd-keys and i want to install both of them onto the same computer. but when i put the install disk in for the second copy it only has play diablo i dont have a choice to install it again.

so i was wondering if anyone new a way to install it for the second time.

Yes.
Have a look at these threads :

This is what I use : different folder (copy and paste), use tools to change CD_key.

Also, I saw on other forum another way, with just one install folder. I didn't tested it yet, but it seems to works good. Here it is : [zel]
Multiple CD-Keys on single installation
Published by: Thrawn , On: Aug-11-2002

To use multiple keys on one installation:


You need:
1. D2 installed
2. 2 sets of valid cd-keys (2 SETS! This means 4 different keys)
3. the dw-d2loader-fix file from our IRC channel (on mIRC, you need to use the fserv)

Also, it is assumed that your diablo 2 folder is c:\program files\diablo ii\
If yours is different, you will have to change the steps below to allow for that.


First, you should have d2 installed with one set of keys.

Next, in the d2loader-fix file, there is a file called "auto-cdkey.reg" right click it and go to edit. Make sure it looks like the following:


REGEDIT4

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Blizzard Entertainment\Diablo II]
"owner"="your name"
"d2cdkeympq"="cdkey.mpq"
"d2xcdkeympq"="cdkey.mpq"
"d2cdkey"="---"
"d2xcdkey"="---"


Where it has the --- put in your cdkeys that ARE NOT installed already. Then hit save. Take the file "cdkey.mpq" from the dw-d2loader-fix.zip and put in your c:\program files\diablo ii\ folder.

Then go back to the auto-cdkey.req and right click it. Go to Merge. Hit yes on the confirmation.

Next, go to the d2-cdkey.exe in the zip. Double click it and run it for both keys. It may ask you to input cdkeys. Do what it asks.

Last step. Make a NEW shortcut to your d2loader exe with the following in the target box:

"c:\program files\diablo ii\diablo ii.exe" -mpq cdkey.mpq[/zel]

thanks for the help i just did it and it is working just fine.

now i can either rush 1 of my own characters or just transfer to a mule myself without worrying about someone steeling my stuff
