Make sure you used the correct CD, maybe you used the installation CD instead of the play one. Also if you have more than 1 CD drive, try the first one, some old games like diablo have trouble dealing with multiple CD drives.

Yes its the correct cd, and i only have one drive

Please help someone

The typical reason for this, according to blizzard, is having multiple cd roms. However, you claim you don't. According to blizzard the other solution is making sure you have the patch installed. If you haven't patched and you are getting this message, try downloading the patch:

If you have connected to battle.net and have installed the patch, but haven't rebooted since you installed the game, try rebooting.

If you none of the above suggestions apply:
Start > Run > Regedit
HKEY_CURRENT_USER > Software > Blizzard Entertainment > Diablo II
Verify you have a registry entry for DIABLOIICD with the cd path.
If not then right click on the right pane and add a new string.
Rename the string DIABLOIICD.
Edit the string and type in the drive letter for the correct drive (for example D:).

If that doesn't apply. Shut down and power off the computer. Open up your computer case. Unplug your cd rom. Restart and boot up to windows. Once there, shut down again. Plug your cd rom back in and reboot, test to make sure the drive is recognized by looking my Computer. If it exists then insert the game cd and see if it will run.

If none of these work then you need to troubleshoot further by going into devices in your control panel > system properties and verifying the cd rom is listed. If it isn't listed and doesn't show up in control panel, you need to reboot and load up your bios. Once in bios you need to make sure that the cd rom is detected and is shown in the ide devices. If its not in the bios nor in windows then you either have an error on the data cable or the power cable or the cd rom is no longer working.
