How To: Use Windows Chat In XP

Postby phileysmiley on Fri Mar 17, 2006 3:34 pm

Using Windows Chat in Windows XP

Did you know that you can use Windows Chat on your computer to communicate with someone on another computer?

Both computers must be connected to the same network (for example, a local area network [LAN] or the Internet). Also, each computer must be running a similar protocol, such as TCP/IP.

Chat is interactive. You see a reply to your messages as the other person types it. The Chat window is separated into two panes: one contains the messages you send, and the other contains the messages you receive.

To Start Windows Chat
1. Click Start, and then click Run.
2. Type winchat, and then press ENTER.
