John: After having read your post re saving SP 2 to a CD for future need, I
have a question. I installed SP 2 from the CD disc that I ordered from
Microsoft when it originally came out. My question is: if and when it
becomes necessary to reinstall SP 2 in case of a Moviemaker problem, or for
any other reason, would I reinstall right over the present SP 2? Or, is
uninstalling SP 2 even an option? Thanks a lot.

some pretty uncomfortable places. The basic problem started with MM
transitions and effects being wiped out. I have MM 2.1 and tried to
reinstall SP2 to get around the problem but unfortunately that did
not do the trick.
You *tried* to reinstall SP2 or you *did* reinstall SP2?
You can download SP2 from the following link:
Download Windows XP SP2
http://tinyurl.com/6ubys
Generally, users install from the net but this
site allows you to download the complete
file to your hard drive before installing.
It's good for a network administrator because
you can burn it on a CD and install it on as
many computers as you need to.
And it's good for a single machine because
if you ever need to install it again...you'll have
it available without waiting for a download.
============================
So research from PapaJohn's checklist which turned me to Rehan's============================
forum for such fixes, I tunred to the registry (HKEY_etc) and watched
the transitions and effects listings grow
for(HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\ActiveMovie\devenum\{CC7BFB43-F175-11D1-A392-00E0291F3959}
and
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\ActiveMovie\devenum\{CC7BFB42-F175-11D1-A392-00E0291F3959}
) after running the downloaded "missing transitions and effects" from
Rehan. Launching MM2.1 wiped them away and that is where I am stuck.
Both of these registries show "value not set" for ID and I am left
wondering.
I checked permissions in each of these registries and I have
administrative access. Any advice would be useful. I'm not sure
what other detail would be useful to get help. I am running Norton
Internet Security and Antivirus and don't think adware or spyware is
a problem.
Aside from downloading and reinstalling SP2...
the following links are all I have on the subject
of missing transitions...I'm guessing you've
tried them all:
