    You need to verify your email address.

    Go to Live.com, sign in and verify it.

    What happens when you try to change it?

    What do you mean you "changed" your MSN? Be specific.

    This is very common, all my email address are custom ones, it takes a few signing in's and out's to get it to change your name for you

    I think there is a program called WindowsEnabler or something and it allows you make a "locked" text field edittable. Use that to change the display name. If it resets back to the default then it wasn't verified or something.

    Try this:

    Close MSN - Go to Start - Control Panel - Add & Remove Programs - ‘Windows Live Essentials’ (if using WLM 2009) or ‘Windows Live Messenger’(if using WLM 8.5) - Click on 'Remove' - And then on 'Repair' - Wait when the Wizard finishes - Sign in again!

    Hope this helps!

    It takes a few times to sign in and out.
