i had the biggest urge to go and make a music video,
using a buncha clips form an anime, and a song that fits
the clips, so i got myself movie maker 2, and started
making, and everything went well up to the point where i
needed to save the project as a movie, that's where the
problem happens, when it's saving, it gets to 75% and
gives me an error message

"Windows Movie Maker cannot save the movie to the
specified location. Varify that the original source files
used in your movie are still available, that the saving
location is still available, and that there is enought
disk space available, and then try again."

i tried saving in another location but got the same
message, i'm sure that my source files are available, and
and i know i have space, i'm pretty sure that saving
location is available as well, the help pages aren't
helping (isn't that the obvious :| yea..) i'm lost, and
have no idea what i'm doing wrong, or how to fix it, some
help would be great and very apriciated

i'm checking as we speak.. i checked qasf.dll, it's
version 9.. my project isn't too complex, i don't think
anyway, 24 megs, i don't know, maybe it is too complex
with that =\ it gets to 88% and stops i tried smaller
files (really small) they work, this one doesn't :|

Then the next step is a good tuneup of your hard drive - free up space and
defrag. And turn off other running software (don't go overboard here)
