Hi all my first post is a problem I need help in solving. The other day everything in my house went pop - some kind of power issue. As a result I had to reboot my router and reinstall a graphics card driver which went corrupt.
I thought everything was good until yesterday evening when my MSN contacts informed me that instead of my contact name being displayed, it showed my email address, and also when they tried to send me a message, sometimes they couldn't do so.
So i thought ok I'll reinstall Windows Live Messenger. Totally removed the old one and reinstalled. It was ok for a bit and then the problem reoccurred. Checked my router settings and nothing had changed ports wise.
I close Windows Live Messenger and used Meebo online. Now this is a web based solution but even that has the same issue. Does this mean it's a network issue bearing in mind I have a btinternet email address and not a hotmail one? Or are there some files in Windows which if corrupt would mean both program and web based solutions won't work?
Thanks for your help in advance.
