So I want to install Diablo II on my new PC, but I only have the install discs here, and not the package with the CD key. I have the full game + LoD installed on my laptop here and was wondering if there's a way to find the key somewhere in the install files on it.
(and mods-- if there's any question about whether I have a legit copy, I can post pics of the install/expansion discs.)
How to find out my Diablo II cd key?

OP the cd-key is not tied with the disk so you will have no way of recovering you key from the cd. If you atleast had the retail box you could call blizzard and give them the numbers etc off the box.
In your case your out of luck.

thanks, but did you read the op? I'm not trying to get the key from the disc. I'm trying to get it from my installation on another pc...

YES I READ THE OP.
If you did a proper search google, yahoo answers etc. you would see that what your are asking is not possible. If you have no type of box or slips that came with the game you will have no way of getting a working key as you have no way of proving that you bought the original game and didn't steal or pirate the cd's.

I misread "disk" as "disc" as in I thought you that thought I was trying to get it from the install disc. Sorry for the confusion

Funny, a search showed me the exact opposite. There is a Battle.net CD key grabber out there. Unfortunately the links are all very, very old. However, since I am apparently much better at searching than you are, I was still able to find it.If you did a proper search google, yahoo answers etc. you would see that what your are asking is not possible.
Magickian's Battle.net CD Key grabber
You may need to try to connect to bnet so Diablo will extract the key in memory, I'm not sure.
(Note to mods, this will only extract a CD key from an already installed and valid copy, it's not a keygen or anything of that sort)

Can my son and I play each other over network using the same CD key? Or would it mean I had to buy another copy of the game?

Pretty sure you don't need unique cd keys if you won't be playing on realmed battle.net. I could be wrong though.

There is a program there that will locate the CD keys in your old installation... though the site is in polish. You do have to register to download it though as I found out. Took me ages to find one that worked with 1.13. Was trying to find one so I could register my copy on battle.net just in case the drive with my old copy went to crap. My CD cases have been gone for years lol.
