Have you tried patching the game, as I've seen this running on W7 before - so it does work with a bit of tinkering

Yes I've had D2 working quite well in Windows 7 and the funny thing is I don't even remember having any real install or play issues. I do remember I did patch the game but it was so I could play my LOD expansion character (I had an old save game). The only advise I can give is uninstall, reinstall as Administrator and in Compatibility Mode and after the install, run the game with the same adjustments.

I play D2 on Windows 7 very regularly.

Download the game from battle.net instead of installing it from CD, and the whole experience is very easy.
