Cannot publish movie with windows movie maker

Hey

I cannot publish my movie with windows movie maker, although I canno
detect any problem.
All the clips used in the movie are .avi, it is 41 clips in total an
the movie length is 2 min 33 sec.

When I try to publish the publishing process starts but then cancel
and gives me this message
"Windows Movie Maker cannot publish the movie to the specifie
location. Verify, that the original source files used in your movie ar
still available, that the publishing location is still available, tha
there is enough free disk space available, and then try again.

Checked all that and that is not the problem

Would be greatful for help, could not find any solutions in the othe
threads for WMM

Kind Regard

see my website's Problem Solving > Can't Save a Movie page.

Lots of avi files today are made with Divx or Xvid compression, files that
Movie Maker often has problems with.

I would convert the clips to .wmv with Format Factory ( 'Format Factor
- Free media file format converter' (http://www.formatoz.com/) ) whic
is an excellent and easy to use program that produces good quality. Yo
won't see the difference - especially if you publish with WMM that ruin
all quality anyhow. If you want to publish without loss of quality, us
Machete ( 'Lossless Video and Audio Editor, Splitter, Joiner fo
AVI,FLV,WMV,WMA,ASF,MP3 files' (http://www.machetesoft.com/) )

Thank you so much for all your help!

I converted all the files to .wmv files and that worked out well.
However, know I cannot import all of the .wmv files into WMM. The error
message is that some of the files are not indexed and therefore, cannot
be converted.

If you would have an idea how to solve that problem, I would greatful.

Kind Regards and Thanks again!
