like AVI, DVD, or MPEG so I can upload my movies to the web?

John I printed out the instructions as shown here but all I got was three
error message windows and my movie I was attempting to save deleted. As far
as I can tell the three files have nothing to do with Movie Maker which I
find to be odd. Have you run upon this type of problem before? What would you
suggest now? I am getting very upset with this program and with just buying
$80 worth of effects and transitions to add to it feeling very messed over by
Microsoft for puting out a program that is soo full of bugs and glitches.

Sorry, but what you describe is new to me.

Are you running Windows XP - SP2?

What are the exact error messages?

Maybe you should try doing a system restore
to a time before you installed the upgrades.
