Nothing is ever easy

[ShadowHM]

Hi

I am baffled and confused.

All of a sudden, I cannot join or make Realm games. I played earlier today, and all was fine. But now......

I can make a SP game.

I can make a TCP/IP game. I can even have someone join that game.

I can join an Open Bnet game.

But I cannot get into a Realm game. Just as the loading screen starts to open the portal, I hear a little hammer sound and the screen freezes. The same goes for making Realm games.

I have re-booted numerous times. I have run the game through D2 Accelerator and not. I have disabled most of the start-up menu, so as to not clog up RAM.

I am out of ideas for what to try next.

Anyone have advice/suggestions?
