Movie Maker 2 crashes when adding titles or transitions.
It was working fine at first. Does anyone know of a fix
for this?

I had the same problem. The answer for me was a conflict
with one of the Divx codecs. All you need do is find the
codec DivXAF.ax in Windows/system32 and rename it. Not
sure yet what effect it has on any Divx movies but if I
have a problem I'll at least have a clue as to where to
start.

Check out http://pws.chartermi.net/~papajohn/MM2.html
where there is more info on MM2 than you can imagine
exists. Hope it works for you.
 
Your fix was right on the money! Movie maker 2
transitions worked fine and all my Divx movies seem to
play too. Thanks.
 
I had the same problem, and it was caused by the DivX
codec.

You need to remove DIVXAF.AX to stop this glitch


To do so:

(1) Click Start, and then click Search (->For Files or
Folders).
(2) In the Search Companion dialog box, click "All files
and folders".
(3) Type "DIVXAF.AX" (without quotation marks) in
the "All or part of the file name" box
(4) In the "Look in" box, choose "Local Hard drives".
(5) Click "More advanced options" to make sure that
the "Search subfolders", "Search hidden files and
folders", and "Search system folders" are selected.
(6) Click Search.
(7) After searching DIVXAF.AX, right click it, and click
Delete.

I was having the same problem and found that it was the
Nimo 5.0 build 9 beta 1 that was causing the problem I
uninstalled it and everything works again.
