Unhandled Exception for multiplayer

[Rasm187]

Whenever i boot the game works fine, can play single player. But i try to load into Multiplayer and this happens

Ive reinstalled the game a few times and tinkered with run as admin, the settings in the sven glide wrapper, running windowed vs not etc. Worked yesterday today just says fu. help?

Same problem here. Diablo II seems to check for updates via battle.net and then the error comes.

Follow the instructions at the bottom (DEP).

You can also try this.

For those who did not manage to fix C0000005 ACCESS_VIOLATION, and tried the:
"Open Explorer, right-click Computer, Advanced System Settings, Advanced tab, Settings in Performance section, Data Execution Prevention tab, choose Turn on DEP for all programs and services except those I select, Add, find Diablo II.exe and add it, Apply."

... without any success. Try my solution below.

You have to disable DEP completely in your OS. To do this:
1. Run cmd as an administrator
2. type: bcdedit.exe /set {current} nx AlwaysOff
3. reboot

Cheers.
