I am trying to put still photos in my storyboard with some videos for my
movie. The photos show as a black screen. I have reinstalled MM2 and every
time I take a still photo from the collections area and put it in the
storyboard I still get a black preview screen. When I reinstalled MM2 it
skipped the beginning of the install and says"resuming installation"then it
finishes. But nothing changes. The strange part is I can still open MM1 and
try to preview pics in the storyboard and it works fine. I thought MM2 was
suppose to OVERWRITE MM1. All of the pics are .jpg or .gif so that isn't the
prob. Since we are unable to uninstall MM to start over from the beginning,
What am I to do?

I have also copied this file:{60BFF50D-FB2C-4498-A577-C9548C390BB9}
into my Movie maker folder, installed the "mm20ex.inf" file and still nothing.

I am about to pull the plug on this program. It has great easy features but
if it can't install properly then it is of no use to me
