Windows Movie Maker can't make a movie file

Help!!

I made my movie on the storyboard so big that when I try to save the Windows MovieMaker WSMM file as a movie the program hangs.

I understand that the WSMM file is really just a series of pointers. Is there anyway to split this story board into clips? I cannot seem to find a way or must I just throw out part of my movie and start again.
Next time I know to make smaller movie segments.

Thanks

I found a way to do it but what a pain - still easier than going back and redoing the whole thing. I am saving portions of the original as smaller versions by deleting parts by month until I get something that works. Even this does not work for every clip. I am about to give up and use other software.

Problem is I do not know until I try what the size should be. So far what I know is that 1064 KB MSWMM file works for saving a movie. The problem appears to be more than just size - If it is Available RAM i have over 600MB of free Ram when I try to edit.

Would be nice to be able to tell in the program, without constantly checking the stored size, when I have reached a non-usable size for making a movie.

Anybody able to Help??
