Have you tried the integrated MH?
You can download it here: http://europebattle.net/d2/tools

Hello there,
This is actually one of the most common windows generic errors and the internet is full of articles and topics about it. There are quite a few threads created on this forum as well where this has been discussed before and they refer strictly to diablo2 and especially to maphacking so make sure you give the search function a try. Inside the maphack archive that you can download from our tools page there is a common readme.txt file name that contains more instructions and troubleshooting so you should definetly check that one out too.
Based on your post it seems that you're not running the maphack as administrator and it's mandatory to do so especially for newer operating systems so make sure you run both the game and maphack as an administrator, compatibility mode is optional but highly recommended too. You have a guide about most common game errors and their fixes right here. Additionally, as @inayat mentioned and especially if you intend to run the game in full screen mode (by the way, we recommend using window mode over full screen mode in newer operating systems) we recommend downloading the integrated sting maphack instead and that basically means the maphack will automatically start when you run the game. Instructions and everything else you need can be found inside of the readme.txt file that comes with the maphack archive. Let us know if everything worked fine.

 

Glad to hear that @Metalmaster and thanks for replying back with the solution. You haven't mentioned anywhere in your first post that you modified the config file so we all assumed that you are using a default configuration of the maphack and advices were based on what you told us. If you are doing important changes or any changes at all make sure to mention that in your post as it will help with troubleshooting. Most likely you are correct about having an extra character left by accident somewhere in the old edited configuration file and that triggered the error. Cheers.
