Firstly, I do not know if this is the right board but I looked for a while and could find nothing suitible. The problem I am having is with msn 7.5 build 0311. A while ago when a certain person sent me a message or if I was to send a message to them, msn would lock up for a few seconds. Now it seems to have passed onto everyone I talk to on msn and it is lasting alot longer and taking up all my processor resources. I have done a reinstallation and system restore back to the date I first installed windows (1 year ago). It still does it. I was wondering if anyone knows how I can solve this problem. I doubt it is my hardware but it could be. Please can anyone help? AMD 64 Biostar Motherboard 1024mb DDR 400mhz 160gb IDE Hard Drive GeForce FX 5700 P.S It only does this with MSN, no other software.
