Movie Maker - issue importing mp3's

I just tried importing an mp3 and I'm receiving the message: "mp3 could not
be imported. Class not registered." I don't know what this means. It's not
a protected file. This isn't the first movie I've made, but this is the
first time I've had a problem importing the music.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Resave the mp3 it as a wave file and then convert it to mp3 again. I use the
program Goldwave for that.
Hope this helps.

Thanks very much Edward, but unfortunately that didn't work.

Just when I was beginning to like Vista... this is interesting... I tried
your suggestion and the message I get is "Windows cannot find
"regsvr32quartz.dll." I went into MM tools/options/compatibility to view
video/audio filters. The only filter listed is "AVI
Decompressor...windows/system32/quartz.dll".

Thanks again for your help, Edward.

==========================
When running the command:
regsvr32 quartz.dll

There must be a space between the 2 and the q

Thanks John... I didn't notice the space, but it looks like it's gone from
bad to worse. After entering the info, a new error popped up: "Quartz.dll
was loaded, but the call to Dllregisterserver failed with error code
0x8007005." I hate to ask, but any thoughts on this?

You have to run the regsvr32 command from an "elevated" command prompt.

Type cmd in the Start Search box above the Start Orb. When cmd.exe appears at
the top of the Start Menu, right click on it and select "Run as Administrator".
Then enter the regsvr32 command in the Command window and press Enter.
