????????.???ε ? η?￠ε ??у????????Msn error code 8100030d, how do i fix it?I get that code when my system is overtaxed and thus WL/MSN cannot pull the virtual memory or bandwidth space it needs to run.
Here are a few suggestions which work for me.
1) Wait until your system is fully loaded before trying to start it. That means waiting for all auto run programs to start up etc.
2) Try again in a few minutes. Often, even when things have loaded there is still some bandwidth issue going on that clears on its own when you try again.
3) If you run a router and or modem turn off (or better yet unplug) both for 5 to 10 minutes. This serves to restart your internet connection.
4) Shut down and reboot the entire computer. This is always a good idea no matter what the problem you're having is.
Now for some other measures I haven't tried but may also help.
5a) Run your virus/spyware/adware scanner. Junk like that clogs up the memory and creates problems.
5b) Check to make sure your VSA is not out of date. If it is, update it and rescan.
6) Run the defragmenter and disk cleanup in your system tools. It's good for the health of your computer overall if nothing else.
7) Uninstall the app and restart your computer. Then redownload the .exe file and restart again. Then repeat steps 1-3.
8) If all else fails contact customer support. Let them know what you've already tried and be clear, concise, and courteous.
9) In the meantime use a webchat client like meebo or iloveim.com until you can resolve the issue.
