Hi guys,
I have an otherwise completely stable Siemens Fujitsu 3.2Gig Pentium Machine
with a Gigabyte of RAM. I have captured my videos onto my Hard disk in AVI
format and everything works, other than Movie maker is so unstable - it is
always crashing. This is the only application on my machine to be so
unstable. This is a great pity since I think this application is great
considering it's a freebie.

Anyone shed any light onto this please????

Best regards,
 
Probably you have the same problem I have using my Dell 3000. If I play
the storyboard much the system locks up on me. MM2 requires a lot of
memory and doesn't manage it well enough. Let Windows XP adjust the
size of your virtual memory file or set that file size to max. Your
options should include automatic file saving. Also save your file after
each change you make. Then, when MM2 locks up, terminate the program
using ctl/alt/del. Restart movie maker and it will ask if you want to
recover the automatically saved project. Click yes and everything
should return to where you were.
