I have enjoyed Microsoft Movie Maker for several years and have edited "almost" all of my Videos with it but, the only thing that I do not like is this program somehow is impeded with the MS OS and depending on what Microsoft OS version your computer is operating it might have different results / options.

I have an HP Pavilion 760n, model number P6320A (Originally came with 120G HD, 512G RAM) and operating with Microsoft Windows XP Home Edition. Somewhere along the line the Microsoft Movie Maker STOPPED working and the video editing software comes up for a few seconds to only give me an error saying there was "An Error Occurred and Program Shutting Down"

I have tried restoring the computer to an earlier date, nope that did not work, I have since bought new memory a 2700 series 333 / 400 speed 1.0 Giga-Byte DIMM module and that did not help.

I finally was able to figure out how to create complete "Recovery" CD's all 9 of them and have yet to issue the Recovery process as I like to try several other things.

When you go to Microsoft Web Site it tells you that you need to install:

Download Instructions

Movie Maker 2.1 is available for download with Windows XP Service Pack 2 (SP2). You can download SP2, Movie Maker 2.1, and all future critical updates automatically by turning on the Automatic Updates feature in Windows XP.

Well, I have and still nothing!!!!!!![>:]

I just don't know why MS does this and has MM part of the OS?? I think that I have loaded all the way to Service Pack 3 because my OS is the 32bit running version and anyway there's no SP3 for the 64-bit version of Windows XP. You would think that all these MS Auto Updates would fix my Movie Maker, NOT!!!

I am considering buying another separate Video capture and editing Software as it has been my experience that MS MM is just too flaky!!
