I can't save a movie file to my computer.

First I click File->Save Movie File.

Next I enter a file name for the saved movie and I choose
the place to save the movie. I select the default name
and I choose "My Computer" for the place to save my movie.

Finally I select "Best quality for playback on my computer
(recommended).

I get an error. "Cannot Complete the Save Movie Wizard."
It indicates I should verify that the original source
files used in your movie are still available. They are
and they are called test.wmv and test.Untitled.MSWMM.
It indicates that I need to confirm the "saving location
is still available". It is.
It indicates I need "enough free disk space available". I
think 3GB is enough.

The original file, test.wmv is 5 MB. The
test.Untitled.MSWMM is 695 KB.

I'm running Windows XP with 640 MB of RAM. I have 3 GB
free space. It's a Pentium III.

Any ideas on a fix for this problem.

I appreciate all your help.

AFAIK you can't save just to "My Computer", it encompasses all your drives.
Try selecting the destination as some dedicated folder on your 'C' drive, or
even your Desktop & see what happens.
