Problem: MSNM locks up.
I have been working on getting the Video Conference working for about a
week. I can use the Webcam part but it will not connect on audio. After
some studying on here I was able to connect to a buddy within the state
THANKS to many of your suggestions in this newsgroup, but now MSN M locks
up. It show the system is busy, and you can not do anything with MSN M but
the my computer works fine, and within a few minutes I get the MSN M not
responding message. I completed reformatted my system and reinstalled WXP
Pro and SP2 but MSN M still locks up. Any advice would be appreciated.

Background System Information
Linksys Wireless Router BEFW11S4 with UPnP enabled
XP Pro with SP2 (Complete format and reinstalled today)
MSN Messenger 6.2 (MSNM).
Logitech cam
AMD Athlon XP 2400+
384 MB Ram
Cable Modem 3 MB DL
 
I ended up uninstalling SP2 and it has been working better. It still has a
lag, I have also noticed since I enable the UPnP OE and MSN M have some lag.
What exactly does the UPnP do?
Thanks for the reply tho Jonathan
