Guys:

Thanks for the attention to my problem.
I have installed Windows 8 Pro 64 Bits in my Computer, an ASUS F3SC.
The NVIDIA Driver is installed and working very well.
The problem is when i install Windows Essentials 2011 or 2012, Windows Live Movie Maker does not work, giving the message in attachment.
I already saw that in System requirements for Movie Maker, Windows 8 is not listed.
Something i don't understand. Both Windows 8 and Windows Essentials are Microsoft Product, but they don't work together.
Best regards to all
