I also tried using 3dfx like this guy recommended by adding the parameter -3dfx in the properties of the D2 shortcut but it still the same error. Damn!

How are you installing the mod? If you are using d2se then you need to follow the instructions otherwise the core won't load.

Thanks in advance for your reply. That was fast.
I followed these steps in the Join section.
and I extract and paste to the folder Diablo

Here is my Pc spec.

I don't know if it has anything to do with Win 10 because previously I played on Window 7.

I also tried to add and exclusion to Windows Defender. But it didn't work either. So unlucky.
Ps: I don't have d2se.

Change the compatibility mode to Win XP sp2 or 3.

If using D2SE open plugy.ini and make sure there is DllToLoad=MXL.dll -line, then change ActiveBigStash=1 to 0

So I got the 1.13 version running as shown above.
But as soon as I hit the Create game button, it continue to load for a few seconds and the error appeared.

You didn't answer if you're using d2se or not, if you are you need to do what Jampula wrote above (which is written in the readme.txt)

If you aren't then you just need to extract the whole 1.2 archive to your d2 dir (including all the .dll files). And yeah set compatibility to win xp sp2 and tick run as admin. Works fine on W10.

Thanks man for your help.

I did as you suggested, but neither WinXp Sp3 nor Win7 mode work for me. I still got the same error while loading into the game. This is a bit annoying since my computer can handle Diablo requirement. Just don't know why it is not running like it supposed to be.

Sorry man I got that answer a bit late. I'm not using d2se.
I extracted the whole folder median-1.2.0 which have Fog.dll, msvcr110.dll, MXL.dll, patch_d2.mpq and READ ME.txt and paste to the Diablo 1.13 folder.
