Movie Maker Version 2.1 freezes

When I am creating a movie in the software it freezes just completly stops
and i cant click on anything, so i have to press control+alt+delete. It
usualy freezes when i am watching a movie but it also occurs when i am editing

what could be wrong and how do I fix it?

Go to http://www.papajohn.org/ and look under Problem Solving in the menu on
the left..

I've tried the papajohn adjustments. Reduced the hardware accelerator,
removed all the compatability problems using this option in 2.1. My project
is a series of high quality stills with effects and transitions and music,
and it crashes about every 5-10 minutes. My piece is only 2:30 min. Is the
sotware not able to handle this? Are there other adjustments i need to make.

Thanks.

I'm glad I'm not the only one. I use WWM to make music videos and I have been
having this problem for the last two weeks. I've also tried all the fixes. It
used to happen often enough before but now I can barely get in two edits
before it freezes.
