Burning .mswmm file to DVD

[Guest]

I have created a movie with pictures, music, and banners in Movie Maker 5.1.
The file extension it is saved under is ".mswmm". However, I can't burn it
to CD or DVD. When I try to burn it to CD it will burn only about half of
the pictures, some of the banners, and all the music. When I try to pull the
movie into Nero Vision to burn a DVD I get the error message of "unexpected
file format".

I spent ALOT of time creating this video and I don't want to start again...I
just want to be able to burn what I have...Is this possible?
