| [Help] After IE7 MSN premium will not work
Every time I open MSN premium I get the message that MSN encountered a problem and must shut down. I can use IE 7 but that's not the point. Why does MSN premium keep crashing. I have spoken to MSN tech. and they have had me uninstall and reinstall MSN about 1/2 dozen times in different ways and nothing seemst to make a difference. Has anyone else had this experience? Any suggestions? |

the reason they are having you uninstall and reinstall a bunch of times is because they are trying to eliminate problems that could potentially be crashing MSN. Obviously they haven't found it yet.
Nobody here is going to have a one click answer for you (unfortunately). Ultimately it depends how much time you want to invest w/ msn support. Personally if I couldn't figure it out within 3-4 hours, I would backup my files and reinstall windows; but that's just me. -- kicking screaming gucci little piggy |

| IE7 worked fine for me until I upgraded to MSN 9.5, then I couldn't open my email and MSN browser would close - other features worked fine. VZW posted a patch/fix to 9.5.2 but I've uninstall, etc. several times already but it continued to crash. Apparently, MSN dial-up users are having serious issues as well. Tech. support said they are aware of the issues but still working on a fix.
At this rate, reformat the hard drive & reinstall everything might not be a bad idea - good time to hook up the USB external drive to backup my disk data.
Apparently, VZW is still pushing 9.5 when you opt to reinstall the MSN Premium software instead of rolling it back to 9.2 or earlier version. Ahhhh.... |

| Yep, I just got Qwest DSL w/ MSN can't get msn9.5 installed. using XP and ie7 getting runtime error MSN\MSNinstaller\msniadm.exe
MSN 9.5 is supported by Qwest
I call qwest and they can't fix they escalate to MSN support, and they cant fix, they give me a number to Microsoft 1-800-936-5700 Than THIS SYSTEM detects my ph number and automatically transfers me to Qwest and around we go. ...... PRICELESS Yes I did try * 67 caller ID blocker.
The good news is I called and complained and got 2 months DSL free. Yeah I also got the unable to register OCX msninst.dll , MSN must shut down error the vista users are getting. |
