Imported Video in Movie Maker plays in Fast Forward Distorted Soun

As stated above...Imported Video Clips to Movie maker so I could edit. When
I click on a clip it plays in FAST FORWARD and sound distortion, which I am
sure is related to the FF. I tried to Open in Media player, but the clips
play the same way...I have searched for a solution and a few days later I
still cant find one. Any one familiar with this and know how to fix it?
Thanks

so the clips always play like that on every comptuer?

what format are they in?

I would suggest you convert them to another format and then edit them via
Mov Maker

I have done this 1 time with my old pc - with XP and it worked fine...I now
have a new pc pre-loaded with Vista. I imported from the DV directly into
Windows Movie Maker. It is in a .wmv format.

there are some media specific newsgroups that may help you, they are:

news://microsoft.public.windowsmedia
news://microsoft.public.windowsmedia.player
news://microsoft.public.windowsmedia.encoder

I suggest crosspost your question to those since there are some pretty good
fellows that know their stuff there. Make sure you mention that you have
VISTA
