====================================
Left click a file, hold the mouse button and drag.
When you begin dragging...your cursor will be a
circle with a slash...when the cursor changes to
an arrow with a + you should be able to drop the
file on the Storyboard by releasing the mouse
button.

This is not an issue I have seen before.

Just guessing.....

Maybe you have a problem with incompatible
source files.

Many formats are reportedly compatible with
Movie Maker but the most reliable choices are:

Photos - bmp
Video - wmv or dv-avi
Music - wma, wav, wmv

Or...you may need to update your video driver.

It may be worth a try to reduce your Graphics
Hardware Acceleration as per the instructions
in the following article.

XP...
(272193) PI: How to Troubleshoot
Graphics Issues
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?kbid=272193
(scroll down to:
Microsoft Windows 2000 and Windows XP)

If it improves the issue, you need to search the
support website of your Video adapter's mfg. for
an updated video driver.

In either case...be sure to return Acceleration
to full.

Good luck...
