Amd 2600+ cpu ( 2.1 gig) 1 Gig Memory

Movie maker Runs at 100% cpu usage.

I also have another computer with AMD 1800 Xp Cpu 1 gig memory and
it is also 100 % CPU usage.. pagefile.sys is Hardly Touched at 1 gig

WHY ???


Why Couldn't Microsoft put a Memory/ CPU limiter in this program ?

100 % usage when loading a project

100 % usage when Saving a Project to a movie file ( 6 HRS for 200 meg)
Then it Take DVDSANTA another 2 hours to Convert the .wmv file to
video_ts file for burning it to a dvd

Forgot to mention that my project is a Narrated Family history file with
400 slides ( JPG's SMALL 72 resolution ) Audio is MONO ..

if the cpu was not run at MAX it could process FASTER and it wud not
take as long

The CPU is processing as fast as it can - hence 100%.

If you want to prevent Movie Maker, or any application from badly impacting
system performance bring up the Task Manager (CTRL+ALT+DEL) click the
processes tab right click and change the priority to something less then
normal. This will cause the application to give way to other running
processes.
