I have a Sony 2001 laptop and have Windows XP Home Edition. The windows messenger that is already on it says its not compatible with this version. I have tryed installing windows live and it says it wont work with this computer. I have tryed msn messenger and it says that the file c:\Program Files\Messenger\Install_MSN_Messenger.exe wasn't found within my System 32 folder. How can I make msn work on it or what version should i try?

I would like to find out what kind of windows messenger I have.my boyfriend and I have web cams and everytime we click to share our cams, the window says we cannot because we do not have the same version of windows messenger. so he is installing a new version of windows messenger and I need to make sure that it is the same version that I have.

thank you for your consideration,
amber

For the Handwriting tool to work yo uneed the following installed:

* Microsoft Windows XP or Windows 2000 (with Service Pack 3 or later). If you are not sure your operating system is up-to-date, go to the Microsoft Windows Update website.

* Microsoft Windows Journal Viewer 1.5.

* Security Update for Windows Journal Viewer.

Beta software is just that - beta. Not ready. Not finished. Has bugs. And so on. :-)

With all the questions I get here, I can't support Beta software. There should be support forums or something for the Beta, so I'd suggest you ask there.

Hotmail isn't something you update. Just visit http://hotmail.com and you're using the latest version.
