argh - 'unrecoverable internal error' right near game's end.. help!

[RIPbillhicks]

Hi all..

The title says it.. in single player mode (patch 1.11), when I get to a certain distance east in the plains of despair, the game bombs out to the windows desktop (win2k) with this error:

Diablo II Error

Halt
Location : , line # 1646
Expression: Unrecoverable internal error 6fe1f59c


I'd just been enjoying getting back into the game, am >< that far from finishing it and it has to do this to me! :sad2:

I'm new here and if this has been covered before I apologise.. please help or point me in the right direction!

Well, I've ended up answering my own question.. the crash was occurring when the 'fallen angel' showed up - I installed the game on another machine, loaded the save files across and played through it without an issue. I've sent the save files back to the original machine now and it seems to be playing fine without problems (touch wood)..

You should probably try re-installing the game on the current machine too :)
