Got a new laptop a while ago, I can't play MXLU because I can't get D2SE to work.
When I start it, it looks like this:

I've tried all the Compatibility settings and troubleshooter. Also tried reducing the resolution to 1080. No difference.
Done lots of Googling, no solutions.

Any help would be appreciated.

Which operating system are you using?

Also, D2SE is not mandatory to play Median XL, it's just convenient.

Kato did you install 1.14a at all? Another user had this same issue while they had it installed.

Thanks for replies. to answer questions:

- Using Windows 10.
- I haven't installed 1.14a (not sure if it's a good idea since I have to use the 1.12 core anyway?).
- Not sure about "desktop composition", I don't see that option under Properties (but I have tried various Compatibility settings).

Failure to start might be a 1.14 thing, but the jumbled mess has nothing to do with it, I'm pretty sure. I have reinstalled D2se after installing D2 with discs and I still get that, though less catastrophic. I'm wondering if it is a resolution bug that comes with wider screens?
