Does anyone know why movie maker (or my computer) would
start lagging SO much as I create movie? I assume it has
something to do w/ the more I put in my collection, the
slower MM gets. But I have a ton of space on my CPU and
the lagging is slowing me down and is a big bummer!! Any
suggestions?
Thanks,
Julie

Maybe doing some maintenance would help.
Running Disk Cleanup, Error Checking and
Defrag on a regular schedule is a good idea.

(check the two boxes..."Automatically fix file
system errors" and "Scan for and attempt
recovery of bad sectors") the utility will run
the next time you restart your computer.
(run error checking repeatedly until it finds
no errors)

Also...adding more RAM and increasing the
size of your Virtual Memory Paging File may
help...have a look at the following article:
