Is there a way to play two audio tracks at once?

I would like to put music under my voice overs, but can't seem to figure out
how to do it. Is there only one audio channel? I tried to put different audio
onto the audio space for the video, but that didn't work. If I try to cut the
audio portion off of the track, the video is also cut. Is there something
that I am missing, or is this something that can't be done? Thanks.

========================================
Which version of Movie Maker are you running?

You should have two tracks...Audio and Audio/Music.

I'm guessing you have sound files in both
your Audio and Audio/Music tracks? If you
save the project in a movie format...and then
reimport the saved movie file...you can drag
it to the timeline and add another file to the
now clear Audio/Music track.

To save as a .wmv movie file...
Type...Ctrl+P to open the Save Movie Wizard /
Choose...My Computer /
Next /
Enter a Name and a Save Location /
Next /
Tick...'Best Quality For My Computer'
Next/
Wait while the movie is saved /
Finish...

To save as an .avi movie file...
(and several other options)
Type...Ctrl+P to open the Save Movie Wizard /
Choose...My Computer /
Next /
Enter a Name and a Save Location /
Next /
Show More Choices /
Other Settings /
Open the drop window and choose...DV-AVI /
Next /
Wait while the movie is saved /
Finish...
