When changing computers, downloading movie maker project by way of

G

Guest

I had another computer rebuilt, I had made a copy of my windows movie maker
project onto a cd, I copied the project from the cd to my new computer's
movie maker program. I then copied all of my photos to my computer and audio
files , but I still cannot save my movie file. The error is one of more
source files cannot be found, locate the original source file. Is there any
quick way to get my movie to save, outside of having to redo the whole thing?
(It is 15 minutes long with audio,photos, etc.? Please help!

==============================
When you open your .mswmm project
file in Movie Maker...if you see Red Xs
in place of the thumbs for your source
files....try right clicking the thumbs and
see if you can browse to the new
location of the source files.

If that's not the answer...have a look at
the following articles:
