Re: Can't Send from Media Center



I am running MCE 2005 and Windows Messenger 4.7.3001 and I tried updating to
MSN Messenger 7.5 and could not get it to work properly. I was told that
MCE 2005 does not support MSN Messenger or Windows Messenger 5.

I cannot access the Blog you listed. How did you get MSN Messenger 7.5 to
work with MCE 2005?
