Failing that pluf your error messages into google and you'll find some stuff to try.
Good luck with that web cam, it will work one of these days!
Any geeks not at Southport ????
My MSN forced me to install Live Messenger - either that or nothing ........
However, the connection failed towards the end (might be relevant) and now I can't sign on - its says :
and when I try and 'troubleshoot' it says :Error code 80048820
Extended error code 80048416
sorry - I think I know what a gateway is, but how to make it 'online' is beyond meYour gateway appears to be offline
Please someone help me
thanks
PS: on the positive note, if I can get this thing going, at least I will be able to load my webcam

you're better off without it - to chat with your MSN logon use meebo.com and if you want to video call, use skype...s0rt3d
Thanks guys - bit nervous about re-installing - will it mess up anything else and will it over-write what I already have
and will this gateway problem still be there
Yeah right as if I know what you are talking about
All my mates & family are on MSN - will this meebo thingy be able to talk to them ? and if how to I install/run it ??
My Jack (birthday boy - reason why I am not in Southport) uses a webcam so I can see & hear my grandsons, will I be able to do that with skype ???
Thank you for taking time out to help me - I am really upset, I can't even see Jack on his birthday (it is today - the party is tomorrow)

Thats a pain! Same error message?
The messenger service can be flake at times, your setup might be OK but there servers might be down. Might not be fixed for a few hours.
Can you test on another PC? Otherwise it's problem solving on google or installing another messaging software like D Scrathe said Skype or the like.
If I was you I'd probably fall back to old technology today and give them a phone.
Your fire walls turned off? and have u added it 2 your pcs allow list?
P.s my msn is learn_to_fly_take_the_leap@hotmail.com

The point is you dont install anything - its a web site that takes the place of MSN and other chat clients. meebo.com
Although meebo doesnt do video - skype is far better anyway - proper video calls to as many people at once as you like
