I'm sure this is some kind of configuration issue. I was able to install D2, upgrade to LOD and install the 1.11 patch just fine and the game seems to run without issue. Graphics and animation look fine, but the mouse is jerky and is seems that just the mouse is dropping frames or somehting. You move the mouse and there's a hesitation then the pointer jumps to the new location, then a hesitation, etc. The animation is smooth and it actually looks pretty good. It will even run in a window.
I've tried a couple of different configurations but still get the mouse problem.
Any ideas?
