Windows Movie Maker is crap. I can't believe Microsoft would put this kind
of garbage out there. It keeps crashing..... again and again.

You fail to mention your OS...if you are
running Vista...disregard the following.
Some users have reported problems
after installing IE7. If this applies to your
situation ...uninstalling IE7 may be worth
a try.

I've also seen a report that disabling the
ffdshow codec could be the fix. To accomplish
this...open Movie Maker and go to...Tools /
Options / Compatibility tab...Uncheck...
ffdshow / OK.

TW,
I understand some people have problems with MM but I have never had a
problem with it when treating it the right way. What I mean by that is I
never try to insert JPG or GIF images. It wasn't meant to handle them so I
don't even try it anymore. I don't fool with codecs. I don't move my project
files around. Etc... I also have not made big changes to my machine. I have
tweaked my virtual memory a little and installed another harddrive and thats
all. Since I have received my computer in the mail and started using MM it
has never crashed, failed to load, or even called me any names. My co-worker,
on the other hand, built his pc from scratch. He bought every single
component seperately with twice the ram I have. He can play more resource
intensive games as me and WORD documents open faster for him but he has had
nothing but trouble with MM, firewall apps, and Outlook. He bought Nero later
and can't get that to work either. There are a lot of smart people that
monitor this forum so reply back with your exact problem and I'll bet they
can, at least, point you in the right direction. Good luck.
