Hey! So i had never used windows movie maker or anything before, and i opened
it and got the hang of it, i made a movie for my american class! However when
i tried to get it onto a dvd i had no idea what to do! I saw all of the save
to email/web/cd things on the side and i tried all of them none of them work
even if I wanted them to. i keep getting:
"windows movie maker cannot save the movie to the specific location. verify
that the original source file used in you movie are still available. that
saying the location is still available, and that there is enough free disk
space available. and then try again"

My movie is about seven minutes long and includes both pictures and video
clips.
I have no idea what a source file is and i find myself getting increasingly
frustrated! =( oh dear!
can anyone help me please?
I'm not even sure that if i could save it to a cd if thats what i need! ahhh!
 
thank you, i love you, so much! =] however, that still didnt work. =(=/=/
It needs 1506MB and i have 112GB free so space shouldnt be a problem ?!?!!
and i still have no idea who to verify a source file, what ever a source
file is. lol
what a horrid thing.

============================
A source file is simply any file that
you choose to add to your project...
pictures, video clips, music files...

Maybe these articles will offer some ideas:
