XP - WMM closes if I click on import video

When I click on import video it goes to my video's for a second then shuts
down.
(Pictures work just not video's)

What I have been doing for the past year or so - (Don't ask why so much work
arounds - it worked for me until now)

I bought Nero so I could burn DVD's.
I make my movie in Movie Maker - edit the project -when done- save it as a
movie.
Then open it in Nero Vision - tinker a bit with it - Then burn it on DVD,
Been working great after I figured out a couple workarounds. I knew how to
use WMM a little and nothing about Nero so between the two I could do what I
wanted.

I started having some issues with Nero a couple months ago.
I did some internet searching and wound up downloading some codec.
No telling what else I did trying to fix it---

I have just read some of Papa Johns info - looked at the .ax files, I have
18 of them on my computer that are possible issue cause'ers.

Knowing the little I really do about this kind of stuff decided I better
stop right here and see if I can get better help instead of just re-naming
all of them and then trying to use a different program or software and it not
working right because of the re-naming---?? Just don't know how this stuff
works, how it all interchanges or not with each other.

Ok, so the bottom line question is-
What is causing movie maker to just shut down with out warning when I
click on inport video files?

(I have XP
version 5.1...servicepac3 ...Windows movie maker version 2.1.4026.0)
