In the realm of Moviemaker 2 and Photostory 3 - everything was going well
until my computer crashed
several weeks ago, and had to be sent in for repairs.

I was in the middle of making Photo Story excerpts for a
movie which I intended to burn to DVD's for my kids for Christmas.

Whilst I had backups they managed to save all my data
including projects, wmv files etc on my second drive, and saved some the
data from my maindrive to a file called "Old data".

Then they installed a newer version of Windows XP.
This has caused problems - my scanner does not work properly etc, and I have
had to reinstall some programs.

My questions are:

1. I have Photo Story 3 and would like to download the
latest version 3.1. Can I do this and still work on my
projects already compiled in 3.

2. Do I have to uninstall 3 in this case.

3. And re Movie Maker, I had downloaded quite a few
codecs I needed, and have forgotten where to find them.
Could someone point me in the right direction.

I am crossing my fingers that Nero will work successfully.

Any help or advice would be much appreciated.

===================================
Version 3.1 is only available as a component
of MS Digital Image 2006 Library. Unlike PS
version 3... PS version 3.1 can burn VCDs.

===================================
If you install MS Digital Image 2006 Library...
the 3.1 version of PhotoStory will install
separately from PhotoStory 3. IOW...you
can run both programs.

Personally, I wouldn't install any codecs
unless I was sure I needed them. Maybe
some of the more experienced pros will
offer some guidance here.
