Hello all!
I'm excited to participate in the beta event for Diablo 3. I just received my email last night and was very anxious to begin testing. However, after download/install, when I log in to my Battle.net account (US) the game crashes every time at the character select screen. I've tried to run it in every visual mode and run Diablo 3 as an administrator but it crashes every time.

I've created a short video and took a screen shot that can be found here:

Hey vizioNz, sounds like you have the same crash everyone else is having. Check out this thread and let me know if your issue is a duplicate of the crash they are experiencing.
