system requirements for yahoo messenger?

We are trying to make messenger8 work with winXP/broadband at one end and a win98 pentiumP2/Dialup 56kmodem at the other.we are running internet explorer 6. All seems to be installed but messages are not recieved at the low tech end – I can see that a message is being typed to me but I never get it.
Anyone else out there got a similar lowtech system working with messenger or are we just trying to do too much with old systems.
Any suggestions for tweaks? – thanks
