time. Best Wishes.

Hi,
It's not necessary on XP, they're fully compatible. See my other post to
you yesterday where I go on in more detail.
That's interesting -- my Intel CS430 required me to install the Intel
drivers. Additionally, Advanced settings dialog crashes but otherwise the
camera works.

Hi Jonathan, thank you for your recommendation for Vista, she will
upgrade to WLM 8.1. Should the XP/XP Pro users upgrade from MSN Messenger
7.5 to Windows Live too?
FYI, the Vista member kept her old Intel webcam which installed and was
recognized by Vista w/o needing a driver!. The other members (six) are
now experiencing an increase in video picture quality when video
conversing with her !! both from the Intel receiving stream and their
Sending end. ( a mix of Logitec and Creative webcams)

Greetings,
On Vista you really should be using Windows Live Messenger 8.1 as it's
considered the "Vista version" of Messenger. All previous versions
won't work properly on Vista (although I've never heard of
disconnections specifically).

Our group uses American Sign Language to IM communicate. Based on
reading postings and suggestions published here, we have 'standardized'
on MSN Messenger 7.5 which works well most of the time although most
annoying is a disconnect every 10-15 minutes. We live with this
experience although it seems more prevalently coming from a recently
downloaded MSN Messenger 7.5 for Vista Premium. (other members are on
XP home and XP Pro)
--- Question? ---Since Windows Live Messenger is the latest incarnation
of MSN Messenger and replaced XP's Windows Messenger, should we all
migrate to Windows Live Messenger. ? --- in hopes of gaining a more
stable with fewer disconnect sessions.-- Any suggestions will be
appreciated. Thanks.
