Hello!
I bought Diablo 3 when it first was released but I was not able to play it because it lagged to much..
I read the forums for days trying to find a solution since I so badly wanted to play this game, sadly I did not. (Other people had the same problem, If I remember it correctly it was something about the graphic card or something, a solution for some people that had this problem was to open some textfile somewhere in the Diablo folders and change a "4" to a "1" if I'm not mistaken.)

Now I found the game in my bookshelf and wondered if Blizzard maybe had fixed the problem so I went to http://www.systemrequirementslab.com/ and according to them I can play Diablo 3.(my scores passed the minimum req.)

But still now when I opened the game it laggs, is there anyone that recognizes this problem and can help me? I still badly want to play and it feels like my money went to waste, I've had the game for 8 months and I have still not played it..

Hello,

Can I ask which kind of 'lag' you have? Are you receiving slow/choppy gameplay/low FPS, or is it latency in that it's taking a while for the game to respond to your actions?

Can you try installing the drivers from here:

Then try the game again?

Also would be a good idea to test with the latest sound drivers as well:

As well as giving the game a go when your system is in a Selective Startup:
