Source Files in Movie Maker

When I attempt to save a movie I have made, it says it cannot save because
the project has missing source files. What are source files and how do I
retrieve them or delete them so that I can burn this to a CD?
 
the source files are the ones you imported to start off your project....
importing is really linking to them, not copying them... so they are still
needed at each step of the editing and saving process.

If they are missing, there should be big red Xs on the clips in the project,
and double-clicking on one will give you to point Movie Maker to where they
now are. If you deleted them entrirely from your computer, you'll have to
get copies back.
