Hi, I tried for the first time using the Windows movie maker version 2.1.
I worked on a project at home using pc #1 there. I saved the project 2
ways.
1- "Saved as" ........then gave it a name in hopes of editing it & finishing
it later on pc#2
2- saved it as a movie to be viewed on my computer.
I then copied both of these files to a cd-rw and brought to pc#2 to work on
it there. when I opened the one to edit, I see a bunch of red 'x's in the
timeline where I had placed pictures there. Was it at all possible to edit
this project at another pc?

I am using mostly dig photos in this project. 2, animated gif's
PS. I know that with photostory 3, one can edit later but I had a hard time
with transitions in that program, that is why I thought I would try the WMM
instead.

WIndows sp2, xphome edition on a 3 yr old Dell pc
(Note: both pc #1 & #2 are the same in all specs)
thanks

Click to expand...
=================================
In order to edit a MovieMaker project file
on a different computer you must also
copy the...images, movies, music...then
you can right click the Red Xs and browse
for the files.
