    Welcome to Major Geeks!


    Any error message while using Yahoo messenger?

    You can download drivers for your camera here.

    Dont leave your email out like that as spam bots constantly search and find new customers to dump their garbage into. ;)

    Just checking, but do you mean yahoo chat, as in the browser chat, or Yahoo Instant Messenger chats? Messenger is often buggy on my machine... is why I ask.

    People call two different things by the name 'chat'. A browser based chat (you don't need to have Yahoo Instant Messenger to chat this way.) Then the one that uses the Messenger program.

    So I was asking her was it a browser problem, or with YIM.

    Try to reinstall your YIM

    I don't know what version of Messenger you were using, but you could come at this two ways:

    Either do a search of your machine for "msgr*" and look for a file with the extention of EXE (mine looks like this "msgr7us.exe") Then Open the exe file and it will install itself.

    Or you can go get the latest version of Messenger and run the new installation.

    Thanks to everyone who tried to help me, this is a great site.
    I bought a card reader for my camera so i am not worried about it anymore, but yahoo is supposed to be trying to help me with my problem, I cannot get into chat and i have tried everything, so i went to yahoo for assistance, just hope they can help. If anyone has any other ideas, i would greatly appreciate it.

    Thanks for all the help!
