    I don't use it my Son does but it is so he can have a Hotmail account and messenger. His friends are all on it. I will tell him to try your suggestion. Thanks for the reply

    Upgraded to Vista and MSN Messenger won't work

    I recently upgraded my Son's Windows XP Acer laptop to Vista OS and now he cannot get MSN Messenger to work. "Windows" Messenger is fine !! He has looked around and been told that Vista won't work with MSN Messenger unless he has Microsoft OFFICE 2007 installed. Is that right? He has never...

    I did find the free AVG version and I have loaded it onto my laptop. I agree it is a good bit of software so I might upgrade to the pro version also. Thanks for your comment, aich69.

    LAN and Wireless media state shows Media disconnected

    I recently had an issue with a BLUE screen error (see my previous thread STOP: 0x000007E). I eventually had to give in and reformat the HDD with the system CD and discs 1 and 2 of the Recovery CD. Once I completed this I was unable to connect to any network - Wireless or LAN. When I do an...

    I eventually got round to doing something with this. I tried deleting Nortons from safemode but it was not going to have it. I tried deleting drivers and letting it find them again, but still know. I then stumbled across my system cd and two recovery cd's that came with the laptop (I hadn't...

    Bob W, Thanks again for the quick response. I will remove Nortons as soon as I can (probably the weekend now) and let you know what happens. Hopefully this will fix things and I won't need to worry about the Windows CD. Out of interest what Anti-virus and/or Internet security do you use? I am...

    Hi Bob W, Thanks for your response. However, when I got the laptop I did not get an original Windows CD with it. Is there anything I can do to get around this or will I need to buy one now? Thanks again granty39

    I am using an ACER laptop with Windows XP Professional installed. Prior to the error I downloaded the latest Live Update for Nortons Antivirus, then powered off the machine for the night. When I next started the machine I got a STOP error: STOP: 0x0000007E (0xC0000005, 0xAAE1F4D0, 0xF8898FC8...
