Windows live messenger video doesnt work?microsoft office 2007

as far as i know, YM can't do video call with Live messenger.

so...i assume you both using Live.

about YM and Live,there are few things i found as i am using bot h:

1. windows live messenger take a bigger bandwidth on webcam/video call.

2. YM video call is more stable and faster connected to each other than Live.

3. the emoticons in Live (specially the costum one) are eating lot of processor resource,so it kind of itchy if you have a slow processor or do mutitasking.

as for your problem, you may try YM as your videocall program.

if the problem still the same, then you should check your connection speed,your firewall, and your messenger instalation.
