This is how I managed to run both MSN Messenger 7.5 and Windows Live Messenger Beta 8.0.(It's to easy and at the same time)
1. Download and install the more recent public version of
MSN Messenger(7.5.0311 or 322 after the
patch)
2.Download the corrisponding
Mess Patch (322) and "enable polygamy".
3.Open Windows Explorer and navigate to "C:/Program Files/". Rename the folder MSN Messenger 7.5 to Messenger "instead of just MSN Messenger" (and remember it dosent matter about the windows messenger so jusst over write it
)
Remember its extremely important because if you install Windows Live Messenger after, it will just over write MSN Messenger.
4. After renaming the folder, go ahead and install Windows Live Messenger.
5. Navigate to the installed directories,
"C:/Program Files/Messenger" - MSN Messenger 7.5
"C:/Program Files/MSN Messenger" - Windows Live Messenger
And create "ShortCuts" to the desktop for both "msnmsgr.exe" porcesses in these folders.
Step 6:
Run them both and sign in!
WARNING!
You will need 2 (two) different accounts. One for each, msn and wlm (both dont need beta accounts only the one using WLM)
and if msnplus! does not load up with msn7.5 but it does with WML just exit them and load msn7.5 1st and then WML.. if that dont work then reset computer or just crash msnplus and restart it.
or if it doesnt want to open up 2 messengers just re-run the messpatch...
