You would have thought that Windows would know of this problem and try to fix it.
Just need to wait and see how long it takes for them to sort it!!

Interesting.That’s exactly wots happening with me!! At least I know I’m not the only one having probs. Wished I hadn’t upgraded to windows live messanger now.
Hope someone can help us soon

Hey,
I’ve got some of my contact list up on the new messanger but I havn’t got them all. Have I to be patient and wait for msn to contect to the server to get all of the contacts??
Lesley
Hey,
I’m also having the same problem in that I upgraded as it said and when I signed into the new messanger its now only coming up with some of my contact lists.
I’ve tried to find msn messanger 7.5 to reinstall it but its no where on the msn.co.uk site. Can anyone please advise how to get our contact list up.
Thanks in advance

Computers can run fine without updates or service packs, I wouldn’t hold your breath over it, honestly.
Hi Spike,
It was coming up as Service Pack 3 when I clicked on the automatic updates that are available to install, and even when I go onto the update website it was coming up there.
Will certainly take ur advice and not install it as I’ve just checked myself on my computer and I haven’t got it.
The only prob my friend has everytime she’s on the pc its coming up saying that her windows xp isn’t geniune when it is as she bought her pc a few years ago from Tiny pc. The only way I can think of resolving it is my installing Service Pack 2.
Thanks again for ur help

Will try installing the Service Pk 3 wi the office disk it requires and hopefully everything will b ok.

Hey,
There is no other accounts set up on the computer so all teh administrator privellages have been set.

Hi,
Just found out when we try to update from the windows directly its tryin to update service pack 3. Half way thru the installation of this its askin for the disk for the Office XP Pack.
Also when we go to select the Service Pk 2 to be installed its comin up sayin that there is nothin to download.
Is there nethin we can do?
Thanks again
LesleyHi,
I believe the updates are Service Pack 2 and everything else.
Will find out what happens then let u know.
Thanks in advance
LesleyHey Martin,
Yes Msn Messanger v7 does show up on my add/remove program list. I have uninstalled and reinstalled this version before as I upgraded from windows 98 to xp. I did have this problem when I was using 98 software tho.
I think it could be a redundant listing. Everytime I click the remove button its looking for the installation file for it.
Thanks for your help
Lesley
