| | Laptop hibernates and Windows Live disconnects When I close my laptop and it goes into Hibernation, when I re-open it, Windows Live has disconnected and becomes inoperable. It shows that it's trying to re-connect but nothing happens and nothing responds when I click on a button, even to close the window. Any suggestions? The laptop is 5 mos old, a HP Pavilion dv 9000, and is running Windows Vista Home Premium. Thanks! |

| | Re: Laptop hibernates and Windows Live disconnects This happens on my Acer notebook (about 8 months old). I am connecting through a wireless connection. I almost always have to close messenger and restart it to get it to login.

| | Re: Laptop hibernates and Windows Live disconnects Thanks, Jonathan. I tried your suggestion and it worked. I signed out before I closed my laptop and went into hibernation. Then when I opened it back up, I was able to sign back in with no problem. I'll try it again in a couple of days to see if I get the same result. I'll just have to remember to manually sign off before closing the lid!

| | Re: Laptop hibernates and Windows Live disconnects Hi, Ah, interesting. I didn't actually intend on that as a workaround really but I guess it works. It's difficult to actually suggest anything with that result though. Out of pure curiosity though, what version are you using? -- Jonathan Kay Microsoft MVP - Windows Live Messenger MSN Messenger/Windows Messenger MessengerGeek Blog: http://www.messengergeek.com Messenger Resources: http://messenger.jonathankay.com (c) 2008 Jonathan Kay - If redistributing, you must include this signature or citation -- "DJ Somers" <DJSomers@xxxxxx> wrote in message news:76A7B1D9-6DD6-411C-A831-6C018CCD9120@xxxxxx Quote: > Thanks, Jonathan.
