when I click on the MSN icon, it says “this application has failed to start because the application configuration is incorrect. Reinstalling the application may fix this problem.”

i’ve tried installing it over and over again and it still won’t work!

Ah me too! Exactly the same problem! Did you upgrade to the newer version? That’s when my problems started. Reinstalling the old one won’t help either.

edit: Teal, what version of Windows do you have? My friend who has Win98, isn’t have a problem with it. But I’m on XP. Are you on XP too, and is it Home or Pro?

edit: Now it works. I had to redownload MSNM and install it. Right after that I went to Add/Remove Programs and repaired the installation. Then I downloaded JNRZ Loader from another website, and now they seem to get along. For the moment at least.

If you keep getting a message saying is not configuredcorrecly then you have to repair your msn, restart you computer and it will work good, thats how I got to fix mine, you probably erased something from the regestry, or by changing from a version to another mighted cause this problem too
