156966 2003-07-02 09:18:00 I have just installed Microsoft Movie Maker 2 off this months cd and have a problem with adding effects and titles. Everytime I select a title or effect the program closes. By selecting the effect or dragging it onto the stroyboard it closes automatically.

Does anyone have this problem and know what's wrong with the program ??

Thanks,
dk

156967 2003-07-02 09:27:00 how long is the media file that u are applying the effect to? Have u split the file into clips or one big file. If the file is just one big chunk then i think it is srecwing up due to that. If it is clips then are u apllying the effect to every clip?

cheers,

156968 2003-07-02 09:42:00 also what OS do you have??? stu140103 (137)
156969 2003-07-02 09:56:00 I'm running XP. The problem occurs no matter if I drag the effect or not. If I click on the effect the program closes and when I drag the effect, no matter where I drag it to it closes. dkbaj (1047)
156970 2003-07-02 12:03:00 Before u installed the add-on off the pcworld disc, was movie maker playing up at all like that and restarting? If so then u probably have a corrupted operation file for Windows Movie Maker, if not then probably the add-on was missing a few files. Have u tried removing the add-on then applying it again?

I pressumed that u had Movie Maker 1, if u didnt then that could be the reason. I thought the Add-on was basically an Add-On for moviemaker1, u can install Movie Maker 1 of Win XP cd that came wiv ur pc.

156972 2003-07-03 07:35:00 I already had movie maker 1 but there were no problems with it. I went to add/remove to remove movie maker but it was not listed there at all? dkbaj (1047)
