When I try to save my WMM Movie to CD it goes to about 80% then says "Unknown
Error" and it doesn't complete the save. It gives me no indication about
what the error is so i don't know where to begin to fix it.

I've tried using the different options in the save movie options. I've
tried slowing down the recording speed of my DVD R drive. It Just WON'T WORK!!

It saves to my computer just fine. But not to a DVD RW.!!! HELP
 
When you say saving the movie to the DVD do you mean drag and drop it as a
data file? or do you mean create a playable DVD or VCD version of your movie?

=============================
The Burn to DVD option in the WinXP Media
Center Edition version of Movie Maker is
reportedly unreliable. Try saving your project
as a .wmv or .avi file and then try burning your
DVD with a DVD Authoring program..

Here's some info and links that may be useful:

To save as a .wmv movie file...
Type...Ctrl+P to open the Save Movie Wizard /
Choose...My Computer /
Next /
Enter a Name and a Save Location /
Next / Next.
Wait while the movie is saved /
Finish...

To save as an .avi movie file...
(and several other options)
Type...Ctrl+P to open the Save Movie Wizard /
Choose...My Computer /
Next /
Enter a Name and a Save Location /
Next /
Show More Choices /
Other Settings /
Open the drop window and choose...DV-AVI /
Next /
Wait while the movie is saved /
Finish...
