QUESTION RE: WINDOWS MOVIE MAKER

I'm so exasperated about a Movie Maker issue, I feel compelled to fish for a
response. The bait is basic, but true (and hopefully appealing): an
opportunity to help a conscientious and enthusiastic novice user of Movie
Maker.

System: Windows Vista/32-bit

Program: Windows Movie Maker

Issue: I saved a 4:3 movie to my hard drive as a 1.72GB .avi file. Frame
Width: 640 Frame Height: 480. I split the movie into several sections,
connected them with transitions/effects, published the movie to my computer,
tried playback on Windows Media Player and DivX Player. The result: the movie
clips play back smoothly, BUT the images are squeezed to the top half of the
playing area; the remainder of the playing area is a blank green screen. WHY?
This has never happened with my movie playbacks before. How on earth can I
solve this presentational issue without having to re-edit my movie from
scratch?

For your response--the sooner the better--my most sincere and emphatic
appreciation.



Friendly regards,

Brohde
