Yeah it has it. Just go Start>All Programs>Windows Movie Maker. Should be above all the folders in there.

I have Ultimate 32bit, i doubt they dropped it just for 64bit but i dont know.

Just try going to start again and in the Start Seach box down the bottom type Windows Movie Maker. It comes up for me when i do this. You have probably already tried it though.

ohh yeah its terrible, however i use Adobe CS4 premiere and it exports videos at like an expense of 2.4 GB and i want to upload to Youtube.... tonight. lol
so i was just suprised when my new Vista "Ultimate" dosn't have Windows Movie maker.
Microsoft Download Center says its in the SP2 update however im pretty sure that update was for XP.
any way i have downloaded a version from a second party site.
thanks

Hmmm iv been looking on the Microsoft website and cant seem to find it for Vista, there's an update but not the original software.

Go into your C drive, then program files and look for "Movie Maker" if you dont find that then its not installed but i think it should be there.

I'll try and find a download from Microsoft though just in case you dont find it.

I cant find it anywhere. Apart from other sites like cnet but you said they didnt seem to work. Have you downloaded SP1? If you havnt try that and even if it doesnt install Movie Maker with it, its worth having anyway.

Hm it came with my vista, should be under start > all programs, at the very top with a huge cluster of other useless windows addons.
