Looking for an answer to why I cannot get any display images onto

[Jaymes]

Hi all,
I have a month old laptop, which was working fine; I downloaded MSN
messenger and it worked fine. EVERYTHING about it! then after a start up, I
think I added an upgrade recommended by vista....Then I could not add any
images to my msn messenger, not a one. It states that the image is not, um,
the right kind. I have since uninstalled and reinstalled the messenger 3
times, and now it is uninstalled so I cant tell you the proper error message.
But I know the images are fine. I have also found that my search feature is
not working either. Isn't it supposed to immediately be seeking as I type? I
believe it did. This is the first computer I have had with vista. Thanks for
reading. I have found a wealth of knowledge here and after 2 days of
searching the help menus and the internet for answers, I have finally decided
to choose a blog group to seek help. I would appreciate any leads.
~Godspeed, Jaymes

Assuming you mean "update" not "upgrade".
Uninstall the updates. If this solves your problem reinstall the updates one
by one until you find the culprit.

Thanks Bob,
I should have tried to be more specific. It was an update. I will try, If
I havent already, to uninstall and reinstall the upgrade. Do you really think
that could be the problem? It "seemed" to run and work perfectly. If that
doesnt work, what next? At the moment there doesnt show any needed updates.
So what then? I have looked through pages of vista troubles, looking for
something similiar. I found a page with many "hotfixes" is that where I
should look.

All I'm saying is try it.
