AIM error message

[Conscript]

This is the wierdest thing, ever since I installed Office XP on my laptop and my desktop Ive been getting errors during AIM that ask me if iwant to debug, then if I click yes it'll launch MS Script Editor. I uninstalled office xp from one of the comps and it stopped doing it. Is this a weird conflict or something? What do i do?!

Have you reinstalled AIM?

[Conscript]

Yes, yes I have..

[Robert]

It's when you open AIM or when?

[Conscript]

yeah, when my buddy list is on the screen. If its in my system tray it doesnt do that.

upgrade dx?

[Conscript]

what?

[Agum]

I think he means DirectX but I'm not sure.

[Wojtek]

yeah, directx

IF its showing errors only when aim window is open, then there maybe is some kind of coding glitch. bad api call to display function or something.

try downloading the newest aim and directx drivers

It's odd, when I uninstalled MS Office XP, it worked FINE without any ERRORS. When I re-installed Office it started doing it again.

[Wojtek]

try another version of office?
2000? 2003? XP?

what do you expect? its AIM which is made by none other than (dare i say its name?) AOL!

if you want a real IM client, get trillian (google it)
