Well I am not sure why you took all those steps. You didn't need to drag
each clip to the timeline and save the projects and all that jazz.
After importing the video into a collection (and the automatic clips are
created if you wish) then you should be able to drag all the clips one at a
time right then and there from the collection to the timeline. If that isn't
working just like that then there is something else wrong and that is
possible since you would be the 2nd person this week that has reported the
same problem with one clip "replacing" another. Unfortunately I don't think
we actually solved that particular problem since it seems to be a new one.
In rereading your post though are you, through Windows Explorer, trying to
drag the actual MSWMM file from the "clips" directory and then into WMM to
the timeline? If so then that explains the issue since what you are
essentially doing is closing one project and opening another. Instead open
the "Collection" that all the separate clips were created in when you
imported the video to begin with and drag them from THERE to the timeline.
