Windows movie maker

[Canny Scot]

Hi



I have just linked up my sony handycam to my computer which is running vista

32 bit. I managed to download video on to windows movie maker. I also have

Roxio 2009 installed and when I switched to this to download the remainder

of the video it did not recognise the video camera as being connected.



When I switched back to Movie Maker, it does not recognise the camera being

connected either. Compatibility issues?



Thanks

Probably you'll have better luck with a Vista or Roxio forum posting.



As a general rule when you replace a Windows feature with a 3rd

party app it's best to use the 3rd-party one. Some USB devices draw

the limit of 500-mA of current and may cause an overload where the

device disappears from the Device table even though it's plugged in.
