Diablo 3 Error 1 Fix

There was an error creating your own party. (error 1) - This is one the most annoying errors to get as generally you have an extended log in then error1 and kicked out of game back to log in queue.

There is no fix for this, it means Blizzard is having server issues.

Best bet for information is from blue posts on the forums

Last GM post 45 minutes ago indicates the correct team has been informed and working on issue. This is EU only issue at present.

Diablo 3 How to find the secret cow level Whimsyshire - detailed item location guide

To find the secret cow level you must first understand there is no secret cow level  however there is a secret level called Whimsyshire with rainbows and unicorns.

To find it you collect items and make staff of herding and use it on Old Tristam Road.

The video linked is the best one to help you find all the items and does not spoil what the secret level is like. (not my own video)

• The Black Mushroom from Cathedral level 1 in Act 1 (cathedral gardens way point go backwards through)
• Leorics Shinbone from the fireplace in Leorics Manor in Act 1.
• Liquid Rainbow in a Mysterious Cave from a Mysterious chest in the Oasis Act 2. To enter the cave you must find a random spawn vendor in the Oasis.
• Wirts Bell from a vendor in the Bazaar Act 2. This item costs 100,000 gold. 
•  Gibbering Gemstone drops from Chiltara a rare spawn in the Frozen Cave Act 3.
• The recipe for the Staff of Herding drop of Izual in Act 4.

Build the Staff

• Using all the items found above, the recipe for the Staff of Herding, and 50,000 gold. (at blacksmith)
• Take the staff to the open red glowing crevasse on Old Tristram Road in Act 1, use the staff and accept the quest. (Follow right side up Tristram Road)

How to uninstall FlyVPN

Recently I discovered FlyVPN was still on my computer after seeing it in the bottom right of the screen on the network icon. It was a selectable connection and there seemed no way to remove it, the only option was to connect to it. Having already run the uninstall that came with the program I had assumed it was gone completely this was sadly not the case. To fully remove simply do the following:

Open network and sharing center, this can be done quickly be using the network icon at bottom right of your screen.

On left side of the window click on Change adpater settings. You should see FlyVPN, simply delete it and FlyVPN will be completly gone. This of course assuming you have also uninstalled the program using the normal methods.

Hope this helped.
