Hi there I was recently using MSN messenger and was saving the chat history. After 2 hours MSN crashed and when I went back to view the convo it had 2 hours missing. With the rest of the convo after the crash still intact. Is there anyway I can retrieve those two hours? I am really desperate to get this back.

Nope only because I never had a need to retrieve MSN conversation. My thought is that it is not likely if the file was not saved prior to the crash. If you like, you can look into the temp folder to see if there is any remanant (highly unlikely)

Have you checked the folder where the saved messages are stored?

maybe thru some forensics ... scan the msn message folder(s) (incl. temps) with winhex.
