Well, I've run out of ideas. It should work perfectly well. All I can suggest is that you go and monkey around with the WMM settings.

i think i know the problem... go into your wMM and go to the options... and then make sure all of your compatablilities are checked... should work.. (i think...)

another thing to check is content protection. Windows Movie Maker (WMM) doesn't allow use of files that are content protected when riped by Windows Media Player (WMP). Go into WMP and check the content protect settings. then check the individual file(s)'s settings. If it is ripped content protected, you can't change it. Delete the file and re-rip it without content protection. Otherwise, WMM recognizes WMA and simillar files automatically.
I know what you mean Owen. It'll be more then happy to use music Ive downloaded, but when it comes to albums from CD, it wont have it. I went to the options and ticked every box hoping it may work, but alas, nothing.
yes nothing works, it is annoying *_*
Well...I don't know if you've solved the problem or are even still interested in trying to find out what to do (Well..I'm not even sure if I can solve the problem ^ ^; )
Anyway, I have the same problem however sometimes it works if you download a codec that reads(I don't know if thats the right word or not) certain file formats. Music from CDs are from in mp4 format, unless you have a codec/encoder(I can never remember which one it is) then it won't let you import it.
When I first got my computer we had a free trial of a mp4 codec I could use any song that I wanted to in WMM! But then it stopped allowing me to use them and I couldn't understand why, I'm still not entirely sure now. But the free trial had run out so thats the only thing I can boil it down to, if I can help anymore then I'll do some digging around and see what I find.
I'm not even sure if any of that made any sense, it did and didn't in my mind ^ ^;
To be honest it would be best to rip your songs from your CD into mp3 format. You can do this on window media player.
