Dell v14 msn homepage stopped working and not sure why msn link broken

Change your homepage.
Tools, internet options, and then you can put one or more home pages there.

I prefer to have it open a blank window, so I don't have to wait for anything to load before typing in the URL that I want to go to.

Couple of things to check. Make sure you software firewall has not been accidentally set to block this site. If you are using an Antivirus program you will find advanced firewall settings in the configuration section.

Secondly, click Tools on the top Menu bar in Internet Explorer, and then choose Internet Options. Re-enter MSN as your homepage and click OK, in the event the URL has been changed from your original page.

Hope this helps.

My page was redirecting to dell.v14.msn.com, but your problem could be exactly the same as mine.

I’ve been wrestling with this problem for several days and finally found a solution that works for me. The redirect can be repaired by going to http://dell.my.msn.com. Just going to this page seems to reset the redirect of the msn.com home page to http://dell.msn.com.
I still have no answer to how to get rid of the redirect altogether, but at least I don’t get the broken links page anymore.

Open IE8->Tools->Internet Options->

Homepage should say http://www.msn.com

Click OK. That should be it.

Hi,

If you are using Internet Explorer then follow the instruction bellow to rectify it.

Open Internet Explorer and click on the Tools tab on the top right hand side, then click on Internet options.
In the general tab you see what your home page should be. Highlight the web address and then type in http://www.msn.com. Click on Apply and then OK.

To see if it's worked all you have to do click on the home button at the top.


Regards.

I have the same problem and it just started today! If I try to go to www.msn.com I get redirected to http://dell.v14.msn.com/ which doesn't exist.

I am using IE8 and Vista Home Premium with SP2.

go to this link. once opened, save as "new" homepage.

http://www.msn.com/?st=1

This error means that the browser could not find the page that was setup as the homepage in the browser settings could not be found. May be because the laptop is not connected to the internet or the homepage URL is spelt wrongly and there exists no such URL. What you do is to open the browser and go to Tools->Internet Options. Here right on top you would find Home Page. Type the URL here. Alternatively, access a page and when it has opened fully, go to Tools->Options and here set this page as home page.

have dell 1555 with Vista Home Premium. Have MSN as homepage. Now get broken link to home page and cannot get to msn.com. Gives me error related to dell v14 msn. any known problems or solutions?
