The problem here might be that there's no expansion disc in there. (This sounds like trolling, but I'm really trying to help).
Have you tried puting the expansion disc in your driver already?

Copy all the MPQ files from the disc if you still have it:

Quote
If all required Diablo 2 '.MPQ' files are installed on the hard drive, the game will no longer require the CD to play.

For users that originally performed a 'Full Installation' and wish to run without the CD, all '.MPQ' files should be copied from the Diablo 2 CDs to the Diablo 2 directory. Most users will only need to copy D2Music.mpq from the Diablo 2 Play CD and/or D2xMusic.mpq from the Lord of Destruction CD. Mac users will need to copy these music files and rename them to 'Diablo II Music' and 'Diablo II Expansion Music' respectively.

Anyone who did not perform a 'Full Installation' will need to re-install from CD again to ultimately play without the CD. In this case, a 'Full Installation' is required, followed by file
copy step noted above.

Open My Computer, and right click on the cdrom with the D2 disc in go to Explore. This should open up the files on the disc. There are a bunch of .mpq files in there. Copy them right into your D2 folder. If the mpq is already in there just skip it. There should be like 2 of them that aren't in your d2 folder but are on the disc.

All you need to do is copy the "D2xMusic.mpq" file into your "Diablo II" client directory kind CrimsonOdin person of D2JSP. After this you will be able to run the "Diablo II" client without the need of your "Diablo II" hardware.
