Massive CPU usage

wow, i've tried for the last couple of days trying to update my moviemaker.
In the "about", it shows up as "Movie Maker Version 2.0.3312.0"

trying to download "2.1" through the updates just doesnt want to work.
my version is missing the "compatibility" tab also, so its tedious and
painsteaking to handle codecs.

i've also tried some help on installing and whatnot. but no dice.

=====================================
Movie Maker 2.1 is not a separate download...
it must be installed as a component of WinXP SP2.

Download Windows XP SP2

Generally, users install from the net but this
site allows you to download the complete
file to your hard drive before installing.

It's good for a network administrator because
you can burn it on a CD and install it on as
many computers as you need to.

And it's good for a single machine because
if you ever need to install it again...you'll have
it available without waiting for a download.
