Greetings,
It's more than likely a video or sound driver in your system as Messenger accesses them
whilst it's in operation. You may want to check Windows Update to make sure you have the
latest drivers and/or going to your manufacturers website for the various hardware in
question and looking for some driver updates.
As a workaround however, you can use the updated version of MSN Messenger 7.0.
To do so, download from here:
http://microsoft.com/downloads/detai...4-9505f47bed45
Then you'll need to engage compatibility mode so it doesn't force you to upgrade. To do so,
go to the \Program files\MSN Messenger folder, right click on the msnmsgr.exe file, choose
Properties, then the Compatibility tab, choose Windows 2000, click OK and then run Messenger
as per normal.
