Win. Movie Maker - Need Urgent Help

    Right so, I have a Windows Movie Maker project that's just under 90 mins. and I've been trying to save it as a movie file for the last day and a half. Each time I'll put in the settings and then when it gets to the progress screen it stays on 0% and just says, "Estimating time remaining..." I got it to work last night but I think it stalled as when I got up this morning the progress was still 0% and the time remaining was somewhere near 1,384,564 mins.! I also got it working about 2 hours ago, or so I thought. When I checked the file afterwards there was only the first 20 seconds of video and the rest was only audio. I guess the fact that it only took 15 mins. to compile should have been a clue that there was something wrong.

    The source files are fine, the destination folder is fine, I've have about 20GB of free space on my hard drive so that's not the problem and I've tried multiple settings for saving the file.

    In short, I need help! I have no idea what the problem might be. Has anyone here had similar problems?

    That was going to be my reply. Premiere will even find it difficult coping with times lines that long, at least it did when I last used it.

    Well is it possible for me to split the project into shorter chunks and then reattach them all together using another program? A program that you might suggest to me? :)
