windows movie maker trouble….?

Question by blondie1989: windows movie maker trouble….?
I used to make lots of videos with all the transitions and effects and everything and i love watching them. But now i have a new camera and when i import the clips into the timeline and attempt to split the clip the first part works but the second only plays the sound and so i cant make movies anymore! does anyone know why this is happening? I a, not very good with technology!

That the first part works fine that is a relief. Would you have dragged it to the music/audio section by mistake?

Depending on your PC …RAM n processor etc …WMM can make your PC freeze especially if the video is long…30 min can be considered long… my suggestion is save your file everynow and again (whilst editing) and close the program… Anyways after you have closed the program, re-open your saved file and see if the second part works… otherwise you might have to split the files eg… first 10 min second 10 min etc etc… then when all the parts are ready… join them together… tedious i know! I HATE it when i have to go through this! Makes me want to scream! Blaaah
