Problems with Windows Movie Maker

Just wondered if anyone could help with recurrent problems I'm having with Windows Movie Maker. I can import and capture video fine, but when it comes to working on the timeline or adding effects/titles, the application just shuts down. No error messages, no performance problems, the window closes instantly.
It occurs even with very small files (2MB).

Anyone else had this problem or any ideas as to the cause?

Angry Re: Problems with Windows Movie Maker

Think I've discovered that the problem lies in Hardware Acceleration. Will have a mess about with that.

EDIT - Scratch that idea - Tried all different settings and the same thing happens.

Re: Problems with Windows Movie Maker

If you can get a copy of Adobe Premiere, try that. Its much much better than Windows movie maker.

Re: Problems with Windows Movie Maker

I've had that problem before, I use Adobe Premier for editing video - it rocks.
Grab yourself the demo version.
