Did you try un-installing then re-installing your original Starcraft?
None.
This happened to my old disk a few years ago. It froze while installing the brood MPQ file. This was before I really used torrents, so I bought another CD for 5$. I would just try downloading the installer and using your CD-key.
None.
Tried uninstalling original starcraft then reinstalling brood war multiple times
Edit : I also tried to un - install my anti virus but it failed aswell lol
what do you mean when you download the installer?

You can make an account at www.battle.net, put in your CD key, and they will let you download SC.
Red classic.

Via torrent. Instead of using a key-gen, use your CD-key. A torrent would be perfectly legal in that situation.
Actually, you could just do what zany said. I didn't realize Blizzard provided it on their website.
None.
thanks =p... probally going to do this in a month since trying to save money on gas lol
And... just to be sure heres how it goes right?
1)Go to battlenet.com
2)register you cd key
3)download starcraft (does this include both) or do i have to download sc original and then brood war...

Go to www.battle.net.
Make an account.
If/when it asks for a CD key, put it in. If it doesn't, find where you Add a Game and put it in there.
Go to Manage Game
Download Starcraft Anthology or w/e
Run the exe. It will download a file a bit over 1 gig.
Normal installation afterwards.
It's Brood War and SC combined.

DarkenedFantasies -- Probably just didn't care. For example, at some point before release, they've updated the graphics of some of the Protoss buildings (Forge, CyberCore, Citadel, Observatory, Arbiter Tribunal), but instead of properly re-rendering them with edited 3D models, they did crappy copy-paste jobs on the rendered graphics.

Ultraviolet -- I suppose we'll likely never know, but my guess would be that they already saw it operating successfully and there was no monetary incentive to finish the original work. And the dev cycle in old school Blizzard was so hectic, it's possible it just got forgotten about after the original game got released. Plus there's an element of existing MPQ files that were packaged with the original discs becoming outdated if they updated it. And it's not like they remade the original MPQs, they just made new ones for BW specifically[2026-6-21. : 4:26 am]
Oh_Man -- so that makes me think maybe the theory they are unfinished is not true and its a deliberate design decision, coz why not finish them wen ur making brood war?[2026-6-21. : 4:25 am]
Oh_Man -- the thing is thos buildings are from classic. that means they went ahead and made brood war without ever finishing the 'unfinished' buildings[2026-6-20. : 6:15 pm]
Ultraviolet -- Yeah he's talked about a lot of that stuff in his casts before. It seems plausible. Especially knowing how Blizzard of yesteryear operated.[2026-6-20. : 3:47 pm]
NudeRaider -- to clarify: couldn't recall the behavior for every single Protoss building but I was aware the disparity exists.[2026-6-20. : 3:43 pm]
NudeRaider -- Contained nothing new for me. Didn't know all building's behavior, but very much all unit's. Also Terran balance whine - also nothing new
