windows vistas movie maker version 6.0 problem

okay, i made a video on windows home premium , windows movie maker version
6.0 and i saved this project into a usb hard drive because when i tried to
make this video on my windows xp computer, windows movie maker version 5.1,
it wasnt working. now, i want to upload and save to my computer in order to
put it on youtube: the video i made on windows home premium (my friends
labtop) onto my windows xp windows movie maker but it wont allow me because
the movie project was made by a different version of windows movie maker as
it told me. i cannot save my project to my friends computer because its not
my computer, you know, so what can i do to make it work for my windows xp?

You can't go backwards... and use a project file saved by MM6 in Vista on an
XP system.... you need to either render the project to a movie on Vista and
bring it to the XP system, or start over on the XP.

Save the movie file not the project. Use one of the compressed wmv versions
then take this to your pc.
