Vista - codecs

I have taken pictures from my Nikon 8800VR camera and when I try to load them
in my moviemaker software it gives me this error message:


The file D:\Sylvia's DDS\My Photos\LEACH ST\Families on Leach
Street\DSCN0005.MOV cannot be imported because the codec required to play the
file is not installed on your computer. If you have already tried to download
and install the codec, close and restart Windows Movie Maker, and then try to
import the file again.


I've even tried to install the software for my nikon camera and Vista does
not even recognize it...how do i resolve this problem

..MOV files are QuickTime files. Does your movie maker software support Apple's
QuickTime? Do you have the latest version of QuickTime installed on your
system?

A MOV file uses Apple's QuickTime. MovieMaker can't edit it in that format.
You can find software that will convert, I'd probably suggest Xilsoft or
Super.

Yeah, upon re-reading your post, I see you are using Windows Movie Maker which
does not support QuickTime. Like Cari says, you will have to convert them to a
compatible format, or purchase software that can edit QuickTime .mov files.
