Game Won't Open(1)Category: Technical SupportNovember-19-2013 9:47 PM PST (9 years ago) Go to Blizzard forum post
So every time I try to open Diablo 3 on my PC, it shows the Diablo 3 logo after I click play and then it shows a black screen for about 5 seconds, and I am then sent back to my desktop. The game still shows on my taskbar as being open, but it won't open. Any ideas?

Exocraze,

Can you please post your D3Debug.txt file? It's located in the main Diablo III game folder.

Exocraze,

This debug file looks normal. Did you crash or freeze the last time you tried the game? The file will be overwritten each time you run it so unless a crash just occurred, the file won't be of much use really.

You might also want to try forcing the game into windowed mode and see if it helps. To do that, edit the D3Prefs.txt file located in the My Documents\Diablo III folder.

Change this line

DisplayModeWindowMode "0"

to

DisplayModeWindowMode "1"
