Help please! school project due tomorrow

[Guest]

I am using a Sony Handycam for a drama video project. I have been putting my
clips in Movie Maker through USB to edit and it has been working great.
Suddenly my old footage and my new shots have terrible resolution (like,
unable to see whats happening because the pixels are so messed up) I'm really
stressing because this has to work asap. I haven't found anything wrong with
the camera, and there doesnt seem to be any problem with it, and I can't find
anything wrong with the program. Everything is working fine, it just isn't
working! Any suggestions or help? Please post.

Windows Movie Maker isn't desgned for analog video capture, it's designed
for digital video capture... ie with firewire.

Going back to total basics, when was the last time you defragged your drive
and cleaned out the temporary files using Disk Cleanup? After you've done
both, reboot... and try to capture again to see if there is any improvement.
