movie maker, all of the pictures and audio files have x's on them and i am

==================================
The .mswmm project file does not contain the
source files. The red Xs are simply indicating
that the source files are not available.

If you plan to continue editing the project file
on a different computer...you will need to
transfer the source files. Once the source
files are available on the second computer...
right click the red Xs and browse to the new
locations so Movie Maker can access them.

If you simply wish to *play* the completed file
on a different computer...save it as a movie
as explained in the following instructions:

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 / Next.
Wait while the movie is saved /
Finish...

To save as an .avi movie file...
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...
