please if you can help, i need simple step by step instructions as i am FEMALE!!
oh i have previously burned loads of movies
Thanks
Lorna.

I'm not very knowledable about windows DVDmaker but "faulting module xvidcore.dll_unloaded" suggests it might have something to do with movie coding/decoding and the Xvid (de)coder crashing.

What I'd do is reinstall Xvid codec and see if that helps:

codec: Download the XviD Codec - XviD Movies
decoder: Xvid Decoder 1.0 Free Download - Freeware to decode Xvid video formats

I do not know if windows DVDmaker relies on these codec(s) though, and I cannot guarantee it will work.

Good luck though!

Thanks very much for your simple help
it worked!!
i re-installed the codec pack and im now burnin a dvd!!

Thank Lorna.
