Warcraft 3 Complete FAILURE! Will not start.

I have not played Warcraft in about 5 days. My drivers, etc. are the same since I last played. I had just started a game of risk devo, and upon defeating orange (STUPID ORANGE) my comp had a huge freeze and crashed. I had to hard boot. Now Warcraft WILL NOT START. My computer freezes when I start it and warcraft gives me a message telling me to insert the CD (even though it is no longer needed). I tried obeying, and the autostart caused another freeze.

WHAT IS HAPPENING?!?

If you know what is happening and do not answer, your dog's food will be eaten by fleas.

Dude, I've had the same problems. Try inserting the CD? Try restarting the computer? I don't know, I tried multiple things and it started working.

Reinstalled game, didn't work, so I edited the registry (don't try this at home) and got it to work. Identified it self as wrong version, so BNET did not work, so I reinstalled again, AND IT WORKED!

I got some random registry cleaner from the internet, and deleted all of the wc3 entries (or things that looked like wc3 ).
