hope this helps you

have you checked your screen resolution? try to adjust the settings of your screen.

I think there maybe is something you are missing in your description. The hard drive itself has no bearing on a download. Particularly if it is your main drive. Did you do a manual uninstall, used the uninstall feature from the old MSN program or, did you use windows un-installer?. First, i would try restore to a date prior to your un-installation. After that, I would first try to un-installed again using teh Windows "Add /Remove programs" in Windows control panel. This is based on you having either vista or XP. You can use any of may freeware utilities to clean your register (not reg edit) but, if you are not very saavy in computers, I would let the registry as is. Then, download the msn upgrade and, install it from your computer (not from the web download window). If this does not help, oplease post again with more details on your system.

If you have linux on your aspire 1 then you can't use the original messenger because it is made for windows systems. you can try using it with Wine or find a linux messenger replacement.

for example Pidgin works with MSN accounts and it has a linux version.

Welcome to msn messenger

Pls. Try scanning your hardisk.

try downloading dial-a-fix for your windows update problem. you can read about it and down load it from here - http://www.softpedia.com/get/System/System-Miscellaneous/Dial-a-fix.shtml - it will do wonders for you - as far as your hotmail and msn messenger goes - as long as you are inputting the correct username and password then you should be able to access both. - try downloading windows live mail which you can find here - http://get.live.com/wlmail/overview - during the install of that tell it to install windows live messenger as well - you can check your hotmail right from your desktop and this will also give you the most up-to-date software for working with.both your hotmail and messenger from your desktop. hope this has helped you.

First of all, have you verified you are using latest version of MSN messenger. If so and the problem still exists, give one of the other instant messengers a try, say like YM or AIM or any number of others.
What exactly do you mean by ' seems to work '?? Can you see yourself in the cam using whatever software other then MSN that you may have on your computer.
