What version of MSN can I use for my old computer of 500MHz processor and 640MB of RAM. Asking b/c I can't afford a new computer just for video chating and I have far too many programs I would lose as well.
Is there some king of hack I could use that would let me keep an older version with smaller system requirements? Maybe version 8.5 has these lower system requirements?
Thanks
Either try Windows Live Messenger 2009:

(although I doubt it will run smoothly on your machine, if at all)
And if that fails, you can use MSN Messenger 7.0.0820:

These are you only two options in regards to using Messenger on your machine. Otherwise, you either need to upgrade your PC, or switch to another IM client which is compatible with your system.
Note that support for MSN Messenger 7.5 and 8.0 to 8.5 was dropped a long while ago due to some security issues in it.
