Hi,
My Windows Messenger has become corrupted - whenever it runs, I get the
"Send error report to Microsoft" dialogue box. This wasn't a problem as I
just disabled it via Add Remove Windows Components but recently, I installed
Patch KB815495 for MSDE 2000 SP3a. (I don't have SQL Server installed - only
the Desktop engine for use with Visual Studio 2003.) This Patch must use
some aspect of Windows Messenger as I get the error when ever I boot up.
This did not happen before I installed the above patch. The specific error
quotes the faulting application as msmsgs. A .dll is also mentioned but I
cannot remember the actual one. I disabled a number of services to squeeze
some more performance out of my system, maybe I disabled one too many? I
have MSN messenger 6.2 installed and there is no problem with this. I have
Windows Messenger 4.7.2009 installed. I tried updating to the latest
version, but this only made things worse.
Is there any way that I can fix Windows Messenger?
Any help gratefully received.
