Elmofongo: So I assumed getting a Battle Chest with Diablo 1 included is a bit a of a Rarity.

F4LL0UT: Well, in Europe there was the Blizzard Anthology which contained Diablo 1 alongside Warcraft 2 BNE and StarCraft + Broodwar, each of them in its own jewel case. I kept seeing that box in stores for ages, later I also saw a re-release of that box in a DVD format box, I think I last saw it on Polish store shelves just two years ago, maybe it's still in print. Maybe that box wasn't available in many other regions but in Germany and Poland zillions of people must have bought it.
Alright something is now wrong again, but this time its for a weird reason:

I see the Starcraft Brood War window saying, "Install Starcraft" so I did than pops up requirments like typing my name and the CD-Key I used to redeem this digital version, but for some odd reason the CD key is invalid, and this is the same one I used.

I think for some reason the order of the numbers are mixed, Not telling you the number obviously but this is the order my CD Key is:

XXXX-XXXXX-XXXX

This is how it appeared in the install:

XXXXXX-XXXX-XXX

Why is the order different?

Edit: It says 26 word CD Key? But the CD key I used is less than that?

DodoGeo: It works for all Blizzard "Legacy" games. With LOD for Diablo 2 you have to download one installer for D2 and another one for LOD.

The Starcraft key gives you both Starcraft and Brood War in a single download as Brood War didn't have it's own cd key protection.
Hey in the Install Starcraft 1 window it asks for my name and CD Key, but for some odd reason its a 26 character CD key and my CD-Key is 13?

Check your account on the Blizzard site, and you should find the new keys that get issued.

You cannot use the old key to install the digital version of the game.

Log in to your Battle.net account, and then scroll down to the classic games.

Click on the StarCraft Anthology and you will see the dlownload page,
it will show you the key and the date the game was registered in the upper right.

Well everything is fine and dandy now. I installed the game and it works. So long as I don't install the patch via battle.net
