On an unrelated note, what is causing this bug:
IMHO this is related to heavy usage of window messaging and directdraw stuff mixed in this game.
And I at least can easily see some corrupted bitmap at the start of each new user screen (while out of game). When mouse is moved over the logo bitmap, the bitmap gets redrawn OK.
With one WM rewrite patch [1] the case got worse. Now the main screen isn't redrawable anymore (but user still can navigate through graphic buttons blindly).
There are at least ~3 alive bugs left and crossed under one game here, I guess. IIRC, 2 another critical bugs were eliminated already.
As I understand, this is a regression, since Diablo used to work a long time ago, and then some patch broke it. The bug was opened sometime in March...
Can you tell us exact date, please, at which the game worked? If I would knew this, I would already was doing several-years-wide regression test.
