Unable to run audio and video setup in WLM 2009 Beta

I've installed Windows Live Messenger 2009 Beta on my new laptop a Acer
Aspire 5930G. After setting up everything, i login to the messenger to run
audio and video setup. However, it just prompt me that Windows Live Messenger
is unable to run the setup.

Since that's the case, i uninstall the beta and install Live Messenger 8.5
and is able to run the audio and video setup.

So i was wondering is this the software or my hardware issue?

hi, some one i know is having the same problem...he's running Windows
Vista home premium while im running home basic and have no problems at
all.
ould you please tell me what operating system you are on as this will
give ma an idea as to what i need to be looking out for and on
[hopefully] how to fix it! please get back to me asap!

Thanks

I was having the same problem on XP with a very old Logitech QuickCam
and found a suggestion in another forum that it was a WLM2009 problem
so I uninstalled WLM2009, Googled WLM2008 install, and downgraded, an
everything is working now

hi guys for thoese that are having the same issue as i was once having
with (audio and video setup) on the new msn, i have found a way around
this.

all you have to do is install messenger plus live from Softpedia.
caution, do not download from messenger plus live website as you will
receive trogens wile downloading. only download from either softpedia or
other external sauces.

to get messenger plus live type into google "download messenger plus
live" and then click on the softpedia link below.

i know there is not much information here but i am so eager to help you
guys out and send this post so i am sorry but i am a big kid when it
comes to finding things out that others will benefit from. if you have
any further questions, please contact me at or
even add me on msn thanks peeps for reading and hope this sorts out your
problem.

David
PS. i am not much on here so as stated above please communicate to my
email or msn thanks guys
