  1. I don’t know who you are, but THANK YOU!!! I just spent over an hour trying to figure out what the hell was wrong with my Windows Live Movie Maker because there was no sound all of a sudden. I searched over an hour, at so many different forums to no avail and finally found my answer here. It seems my 4 year old had been playing with the volume control. Who knew I could change the volume only for that application (well, apparantly my 4 yr old did). Thanks again!!!
