So ive just spent most of the day troubleshooting why i can´t bind my mouse scroll and buttons 4/5.

The answer is xp service pack 2, but it must be changed for game.exe and you might also wanna do it for all users.

1. Open your diablo directory
2. Find game.exe
3. Right-click -> properties
4. Under compatibility you wanna click "Change settings for all users"
5. Check "run this program in compatibility mode for:" windows xp (sp2)
6. You might also wanna check disable visual themes and/or disable desktop resolution.
7. make sure game.exe and median XL.exe is run as admin and the usual stuff..

Thanks.

My right hand still scrolls even though I'm using LoL key-bindings, muscle memory from years of playing Median with XP (back in the day).

You should actually always run Diablo II in Windows XP compatibility. The game has many issues with recent OS that were never fixed until the release of patch 1.14x

Oh shit, Whist.
I remember you from many years back.

And I think I'm on 1.13, should I change?

No, you shouldn't. Simply turn on compatibility mode.
