Not everyone has a spare $300 or $400 dollars for movie making using Adobe Products
Adobe is very expensive and includes tons of components and not easy to learn for the home video levels.
Which windows do you have jjackson
Windows 7?or XP
No video editing will run efficiently if the system is too small so lets clear that up first.
Post back your windows version and your system specs, ie Laptop PC how much ram what video card then I can help with that.
Windows Live movie maker is excellent to make home video need help with it?
I can do that.
WLMM is not available on XP however so you would have WMM 2 in XP??
If you just want to join some clips without any special editing add a menue and chapters and burn to DVD then I highly recommend DVD Flick
Your main comment >Tried windows movie maker but it just sits there with broken links.<

For WMM, it seemed straight forward. I went and chose the clips that I wanted to put together and it just sat there with little red x's if I remember correctly. And it did nothing when I pressed the play button for each clip.
The files were on an external hard drive that was connected at the time, as I just chose the files from that hard drive so I am not sure that this refers to my situation, unless WMM does not like the delay associated with external hard drives.

This is so true
I keep all my files on USB drives as well especially video and for the purposes of editing I copy them to a temp folder on my desktop
Hi jj you must have tried by now, using WLMM is really simple.
Any progress. If you need help making movie using your clips and images?

Thanks again for all the assistance. Still not finished with my current project. This one is next so this will stay open a little longer so that I can finally have some feedback
