I've done most, if not all of Blizzard's tips for improving peformance.  I
play D2 on the USEast realm with a cable connection, I can't even think
about entering Duriels chamber without my character dying... I've tried D3d,
and DirectDraw, and the system still slows at times...  I'm open to any
suggestions, if the V2 improves the situation, I'll keep it, if not, I'll
throw it in my g/f's comp.  All other games run fine U:T has been better
since the d3d patch, so D2 is my only problem.
