annoying MSN/WLM 2009 problem recently i noticed an annoying problem regarding MSN/Windows Live Messenger 2009 version. the problem is, the program is frozen after i leave it ideling for long periods of time eg: overnight. it's annoying as hell as every time when i wake up and use my comp, i see messages i received from people, but i cannot view it as MSN/WLM is frozen. and when i do get the program restarted, the messages werent loged. so anyone else experiencing similar problems or know a way of a fix? |
Do you have a firewall? If so make sure port 1900 is open. If your on xp then try this... Go start menu>run>type regedt32 and press enter Locate and click the following key in the registry: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\DirectPlayNA THelp\DPNHUPnP With that key still highligted click on the edit menu>add Value>then input the following registry value: Value name: UPnPMode Data type: REG_DWORD Value data: 2 Quit the editor, and hopefully you should be good. |
no i'm not on xp, i'm on vista 64, and how does a firewall cause the program to freeze/hang over long periods of time? i can use MSN/WLM fine when i'm on the computer, it's just after a prolong period ideling the program freezes/hangs. |
this happened to me when i was on vista 64 ultimate also... never got it fixed. |
i don't have that problem (x64 vista home prem) with the latest beta, the problem i have with new messages is the taskbar doesn't flash. |
i have this problem on my computer too 64bit vista ultimate |
I had this problem as well. Reverted back to the actual current release of Messenger and it's happened once or twice only. I completely removed any Windows Live Beta applications before putting on the current release. I'm running Vista Business 32bit. |
this happened to me once too. im using vista 64 |
hmm weird, atleast i know it's not only me thats having this problem. and googling doesnt come up with anything thats semi related. |

Further digging on Google shows that there maybe a high CPU utilization of the EXE just prior to the crash/freeze. |
hmm interesting, but still no fix lol. |
Lol, off topic bump, and I dont want to make a new thread. Is there a possibility to downgrade back to the old one? For me, when ever I want to talk to someone, it takes like 30 seconds to open a chat box. |
windows live messenger 2009 beta is out. i haven't had that problem since i upgraded. plus i love how i can sign in and out of multiple locations. |
^ multiple locations is awesome I can leave my laptop running in the kitchen, walk downstairs and watch TV on my other computer and carry on my convo's, go get food and keep chatting. haha it's golden |
isnt the officialy realease out now? mine doesnt say beta anymore. |
