Vista - Vista/Window DVD Maker quits working - used to work fine

How

For some reason my Windows DVD Maker has ceased to work when it used to work
perfectly.

I am able to add files to burn but when I hit next and go to where I can
change the settings before burning it says that "windows dvd player has
stopped working and windows is checking to see if there is a solution to the
problem" I then get a message box stating "a problem caused the program to
stop working correctly. Windows will close the program and notify you if a
solution is available."

This program used to work just fine but stopped working and I do not get a
notification of what the problem is or a code or something from Windows.
I've recently updated to SP1 using Vista on an Acer 5570 laptop. I've tried
changing the speed and placing the video on my desktop instead of pulling
from folders but that makes no difference. I've changed file extensions,
downloaded other programs to convert files to different types thinking that's
what was wrong. Nothing has worked. I can view just fine using Windows
Media Player so I'm not sure why I can no longer burn using this program.

I have also started to burn a DVD and have the job cancel after just a few
minutes (when it normally took about 2 hours) but says 99% done and that
there's a problem burning to the DVD. I haven't had that error up in a while
since I can't get past the initial screen to change the layout, etc.

Any help you can give me appreciated. I'm not sure what other information I
need to provide but will be most happy to provide whatever information
necessary.

Thank you in advance for ANY help you can give.

Julie

In the Problem Reports and Solutions Center control panel, what are the
fault details for that crash?

will help you look that up if you don't know how.

Both my programme for movie maker and DVD maker used to work fine. I was able
to make a video, published in DVD, and burn it. However, last night, as I
tried to to publish a movie with the movie maker in my computer, it seize
functioning. The message that appears:

"Window Movie Maker has stopped working" and when I view the problem
details, this is what was reported:

Similarly, this thing happen to my DVD maker. When I open the project that
I'd previously saved, it failed to open. The message of "Window DVD Maker has
stopped working" once a file or two files is added. Right after the file(s)
is/are added, the message popped out. This is the problem details.

A first place to start is to see if you have incompatible source (video
and/or audio) files. Try this URL:



http://www.myvideoproblems.com/Tutor...patibility.htm



Incompatible source files may cause problems with DVD Maker as well as Movie
Maker.



Another trick that sometimes works is to uncheck the boxes in Tools|
Options| Compatibility.

This is really simple, happily:
You had some bad third party software misregister the Intel Audio Codec.

Did you already "Check for Solutions" here? That crash should have a
response in place already which should tell you how to fix this more easily
than I could explain it. =) If not, let me know and I'll dig up that info
too. =)

So you should be on your way to being fixed here, it just might take an
extra bit if the Check for Solutions response isn't in place for you yet.

I may be a bit dense as I'm not finding the same error messages that are
posted above. It is telling me that I have 57 errors associated with this
program - it stopped working - and there is no current solution. It did tell
me I had a flash player that needed to be upgraded and a compatibility issue
with Adobe. Am I not looking in the correct spot?

I found my fault errors!! I have 57 for this player so I've listed the 1st
(5/22/08) and the last (6/10/08). I uninstalled Nero 8 Demo yesterday and
that didn't make any difference.

I removed all DivX players from my PC and also removed the files that were in
the causing the problem in the most recent messages (they were all the same
fault file). I then tried to burn again and it went super-fast up to 54%
then stopped for "invalid pointer" error. It didn't give me a message in
Problems Report area. I shut if off and tried to burn again and it's now
encoding slowly like it used to but gets to about 5%, jumps to 99% and
cancels saying "cannot create the DVD" and " an error occurred when burning
the DVD" then ejected it. I retried 3 times and does the same thing but
doesn't give me any error messages in Problems Report area. I was so stoked
thinking after weeks of this I finally fixed it - so much for my premature
hurrah :-) Hopefully this is something simple for someone with more PC
knowledge. Again all assistance is TOTALLY APPRECIATED!!

Would that be tools section of my web browser or somewhere else for
compatibility boxes to uncheck? Also, is there a way to tell if the file is
a DV-AVI or a divx-avi? All the files that I have tried to burn are either
AVI or WMV extensions so I'm not sure if that's my issue or not.

The boxes to uncheck are in Windows Movie Maker| Tools| Options|
Compatibility.

Movie Maker and DVD Maker are closely related programs. See if unchecking
those filters will help.
