You may have to download the stand-alone patch off of Blizzard's ftp.blizzard.com server and try installing it like that rather than by using the battle.net download.

also try to uninstall d2 if this dosent work, when you reinstalled windows you had d2 installed? if yes it might have reverted the settings to v1.00 even you have the recent patch when it then tries to install what you already have it blows up

well heres what i did.
i reformated my harddrive installed WinME installed my video card installed my USB cable modem then installed D2 1.00 then instaled D2x 1.07 then that newest patch
after all that entering the relm i get the looking for fastest server. then when i says checking versions it dies
i installed it 3 times now each time i restarted after deletion(there delete for reg would also be gone)
funny thing is Warcraft2 works find on the same server

thats just weird, i remember getting reasonless crashes on closed (wile in chat channels not in games) on v1.08 but this is just to weird, it seams that since they put out the cd2 v1.07(v1.08) patch every day some one else gets ****** over by the game, "i know i was there", i couldent play for like 2 months (yes i did play d2 wile i was absent for a half year) but then all suddenly it stopped, but there was nothing no server side patch it just worked. maybe your just cought in this vortex of crashing (friend of mine gets a BSOD when he enters the cd since he updated to v1.09D) try to hope that this is just some temp stuff and will fix itself soon, but still every crash has somthing that causes it but that might be server side as well so it dosent have to be on you chomp.
