seized up video

[kennyd]

I have created a movie using stills, music and simple fade transitions 27:45
long. When I "save to computer" it does not save the entire movie. Music
plays to the end, but the video "freezes" on a different photo every time -
sometimes in the 10 minute range, but at least twice in the 26 minute range.
I have tried closing everything down - eg virus program, internet connection
etc etc, and nothing seems to work. I have reinstalled windows xp home, and
it still does does not allow me to save the entire movie. I am guessing a
software issue, but I NEED HELP!

==================================
It's certainly possible that your project has reached
the limits of your computer resources but there is
also the possibility that some of your source files
are not fully compatible with Movie Maker:

Have a look at the following article:

And...BTW...for projects that do not include video
clips...PhotoStory 3 may be a better choice of apps.

PhotoStory 3 For Windows
System Requirements

The best bet with either program is to create
smaller projects.
