Need a bit of info here...... your PC is probably running XP service pack one , if this is the case, Movie maker will be very basic, go to the microsoft update page and get XP service pack 2 usually you will need to subscribe to the free xp updates but ist well worth it, when this is done WMM becomes an all together better product to use and offers a heck of a lot more effects etc

if you check out the videos posted by
Chridley, they are all done on Movie Maker.
