| Vista home premium | Live Messenger Error code 80070005 Hi can't find a solution for this: I have vista home premium, newly bought laptop came with this OS.Live messenger worked fne for a day or two then suddenly started this error messaging: 80070005 telling me that the service is unavailable.... I searched the net and tried a bunch of advice how to solve tis but NONE worked. I have amdin privileges, set all programs to microsoft default, re-installed the latest version of live messenger, then according to other advices deinsalled it and installed msn messenger 7.5 but NONE works, NOTHING works. How the heck can I have this program to log in??? I'm getting tired of Vista and long for XP... Can anyone give me any further advice with this problem??? and yes, I DID check the firewall settings as well.... (Norton) thanks in advance |

| Vista x64 Ultimate SP2, Windows 7 Ultimate x64 | Re: Live Messenger Error code 80070005 Ok Teemeah, I did some more digging around on the net. (Googled Messenger Error 80070005) Most of what I find say to uninstall all traces of Windows Live Messenger and download the latest version. http://www.vistax64.com/windows-live/92348-windows-live-beta-2-suite-downloads.html Right click on the downloaded latest version installation file and click Run as administrator. They say it worked after that. Hope it works for you, Shawn |

| Vista x64 Ultimate SP2, Windows 7 Ultimate x64 | Re: Live Messenger Error code 80070005 Teemeah, The only other thing I found was to use Windows Live Messenger 8.0 instead. http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?displaylang=en&FamilyID=e010f88f-8574-4562-af6d-48dd23026b9d If this still does not work, then you might consider using another message program that is compatible with Windows Live Messenger (WLM). You can find a selection here. Just read up on them to see if that is what you like and is it compatible. http://www.download.com/Chat-VoIP-Email/?tag=dir Shawn |
