Msn 7.5(244) win2k


Recommended Posts

Just for your information, MSN Messenger 7.5 will not be installed on Windows 2000/98/Me. You need Windows XP computer to install MSN Messenger 7.5.

If you have a computer running Windows 2000, you have to install and use MSN Messenger 7.0. :)

I don't remember Microsoft stating anywhere that 7.5 wouldn't work with 2000...

Yes, that's right. Microsoft never stated that MSN Messenger 7.5 will not be installed on Windows 2000. However, there was a report from mess.be that MSN Messenger 7.5 only can be installed and worked on Windows XP.

Finally, some bad news for the pre-XP generation. According to XxRebelSeanxX on the forum, the MSN Messenger 7.5 setup only supports Windows XP. There's a small chance that this issue is limited to the BETA.

MSN Messenger 7.5 is in closed beta at the moment. As a tester you should report this in the feedback section of Microsoft Connect.

That's assuming you are an official tester ...

Anyways, I don't believe it can work on Win2k at the moment. Maybe they'll make it compatible later.
