Cannot save movie - no other details supplied by WMM

I worked two days on editing a music clip.
The source video is a 2 GB avi with no sound.
The movie has an "Audio/Music" track with 2 sound effects and then the music.
The video starts with an image.

I have two problems:

1) I can hear the audio/music track when the picture is playing, but when
the video is playing I hear nothing.

2) When trying to save I got a general "Cannot save movie" message.

+ My source files are OK. I can play them all directly from the collection.
No [x].
+ I have 200 GB free space.
+ I have 2 GB of RAM, and no other program is running.
Any other suggestions?

Microsoft please read:
Do you think that Abby is TELEPATHIC?
Is it so hard to write "The file 'hammer.wav' does not exist?
Is it so hard to write "Insufficient memory"?
Or "Insufficiant disk space" ?

If the software itself does not know why it cannot save the movie, Why
should the user start guessing. That's stupid.

source files...have a look at the following articles:

Hi,

Your problem may be different - but I had the same "Cannot save movie"
message (working on a slideshow with music) No explanation. Later I tried
to play a wma file I had created with MM on my "old" computer - and got the
message that I had the wrong version of Windows Media player. Downloaded
player version 11 and now can play the wma - AND save
MM movie files!
