windows movie maker:black preview screen Rachel 4/27/2007 5:42:03 PM i am creating a video for our school's banquet,and everytime i add a transition to any slide, the preview screen goes black and i have to get rid of the transitions to see a picture. Sometimes even doing that doesn't work. Anyone know what to do? i really need these transitions to make it look good.

In my experience, this has typically indicated video card driver problems - is there an update available from your vendor? -- Speaking for myself only.

RE: windows movie maker:black preview screen lola30 7/9/2007 12:28:12 PM Hi Rachel I also had the same problem which was totally annoying. I took it back to my computer shop and they in turn had phoned microsoft to check regarding this problem. Apparently, microsoft were aware of this problem and were going to do some sort of an upgrade that we could then download. I haven't heard as yet but it should be pretty close. Doesn't help much but at least you are doing anything wrong just a "microsoft problem" - you'd think they could have gotten it right!
