Hey there Brewtus,
Diablo 2: Resurrected showing just a black screen before reaching the menu can be due to a few different things. Drivers are definitely the first thing to check which you already did. I’d like to see if a Dxdiag shows any clues. Can you get one generated and post it here please?
Once you have it, just copy the contents of the text file created and paste it here between two ~~~ like so:
DxDiag Here
If you have issues pasting here, use Pastebin and post the end of the link. (ie. 123456 for pastebin.com/123456)
