I’ve been playing D2R without any issues for a few weeks and it started and ran fine yesterday afternoon. I quit the game as usual and went to do something else for a bit, but when I tried to launch the game again about an hour later, it first took about a minute for anything to happen when I pressed the play button on Battle.net and then D2R appeared in windowed mode, but only showing a black screen which eventually goes “not responding”. It takes a few minutes to manage to close the window in any way and many things on the PC feels kinda sluggish before the D2R process shuts down. As far as I know, nothing on the PC changed in the hour I wasn’t playing the game. I’ve tried several other games after this started happening and they all run fine.
So far I’ve tried the following things without success:
- The Scan and Repair tool.
- Reinstalling the game.
- Updating my graphics driver.
- Moving the game folder to a different drive.
