diablo II with onboard video

My computer's broke right now so i have to use a computer with on board video and it wont let me play diablo II because they're is no video mode found. Is there anyway i can get around this. I think you have to have a real video card to play diablo II. But i really dont know.

All the D2 CD calls for is a DirectX capable card, D2 is a resource hog, so it may drag down a lesser system.

I'm not sure if you tried this already but I'll say it anyway.

Diablo 2 does not require a separate video card to run but your only option then is to run in Direct Draw mode since glide and Direct 3D are not available to you.

Run the Diablo 2 video test in your start menu and choose Direct Draw and see if that works
