Movie Maker needs help

no, a complete overhaul. Always a problem with this pile. Skipping and jumping while editing...spitting and sputtering...Inevitable error codes on projects that are WMV files. Projects that develop problems areas and for whatever reason the audio drops out or scenes become unstable etc. etc. Especially ones that have a lot of cuts within and time invested. The controls are simple enough and it's mainly why i turn to it, even for some long and complex videos but it's all i can do not smashing things every time i get into a decent project. For Grandma Jones cutting a video in half or some nonsense it may be a viable solution. Otherwise, it's an epic headache... I've been dragging it along for too long now, trying every trick in the book along the way and it just ends up being too much of a hassle.
