Msn - No Disk Error

[Eros]

So im running Windows 7 Beta on my laptop and also my computer my brother also has windows 7 beta on his computer

they run fine but when i run msn on my computer it comes up

msnmsgr.exe - no disk
there is no disk in the drive. Please insert a disk into drive \Device\Harddisk1\DR1

and I have to hit cancel, try again a couple of times and then it will load a bit then comes up again

then runs fine till i sign out of msn or it signs me out and tries to sign me back in but it cant due to error

heard that other people are having this problem but does anyone know what it means??

Do you have any removable drives on your PC, such such as a ZIP drive? And is Windows running from your C:?

Yes, i have a 500 gig Ex hard drive and Yes, my hard drive is running at C:/

i found out the problem.. its when i got quicktime installed on my computer it gives me the error

its weird but its fixed as long as i dont need quicktime anytime soon

Thanks for the update Eros - what a strange reason for causing the error!

ok so i thought it was all quicktime but i was wong but it doesnt come up has much as it used to so maybe something else is wrong

think its a windows 7 bug hopeful they will fix soon

i have only been using this way for awhile and the error hasnt came up

you need to disable the plug in for msn live in WMP (windows media player)

done this and the error hasnt came up back

will update soon again to tell ya how its going & will try installing quicktime again

quicktime is back on and no error so im guessing its something to do with WMP plug-in

Thanks for the heads up Eros, it will be interesting to see if someone else with the same problem can solve it the same way

BTW, I'm from Newcastle originally
