Vista - Received error in Windows Movie Maker

I am trying to copy a video from my camcorder to my computer using Windows
Movie Maker. It will allow me to select import from digital video camera.
Then it will allow me to select the next step something about single file?
Once I select this option I receive the following error:

No combination of intermediate filters could be found to make the connection

I am using a usb cable. The camcorder seems to be trying to work because it
makes a sound like it's connected but then I receive the error.

I am very new to computers and I have no idea what I'm doing. Any help
would be greatly appreciated.
