diablo ii running slow with vista

I'm having a big problem with diablo 2 in vista, it was running great
until i sent it back to hp for problems, got it back after they wiped
harddrive and i reinstalled diablo 2 and LOD and it laaaags slow, the
mouse jumps around instead of flowing, i have uninstalled/reinstalled
game, changed mouse speed, changed display settings, lowered
requirements in the ingame options. None of it worked, i cant even play
the game in the directdraw option in the videotest, it wont play at all
in that setting, in direct3d setting. Its extremely frustrating.

Could someone advise me about fixing this? thanks

Do you know which video card is in your system? Mybe HP did not re-install
the latest video drivers, download them from its manufacturer's web site nce
you find which one it is... Click start/run and enter dxdiag.exe to get more
information and see if DX is running fine
