You may have some incompatibility issues
with your source files. Have a look at the
following article:

File type compatibility with Movie Maker
http://tinyurl.com/v8tee

I would suggest that you convert the images
to Windows Bitmap [.bmp] and try again.

FWIW...PhotoStory 3 is a better app for
working with still images:

I read your original message and
the screaming is not necessary.

In many cases a file that works on
one system may not work on another.

I apologize for attempting to assist
you.

Two things.....

Why not use the laptop then to make the movie?

Why not read John's post and act on it where he says that Photostory is more
suited to your needs.
