Default .mov videos don't work in Vista, can't convert

They did but they don't now - now there are frustrated people who say they
don't work in Windows Live Movie Maker when they do.

Must go. Ihear the tea lady.

My Olympus FE190 & Nikon cameras use .mov video format. My HPm7750n Vista Hm
Premium OS w/media cntr pkg (WMP, WMC, NVIDIA 6150LE, WMM 6.0.6, Muvee
Autoproducer 5.0, Creator Basic V9-Roxio) all totally useless pieces of junk
for videos because none use .mov files and Vista can't convert.

I googled, read many forums incl. this 1 & find 1000s of users have same
problem. So far, no successful solution. Some claim to have codecs, updates,
other fixes but downloaders all complain of buffer overruns, lost audio, poor
quality, or just don't work in Vista, incl. Creator V10.

Microsoft needs to bite the Apple (bullet) & make a deal with Quicktime to
get a conversion program that WORKS in Vista as "fix" so we can use this
over-priced, ego-inflated, misrepresented OS to "Access your music, videos
and photos" as it claims on the front of my PC. I feel like I was scammed by
ads and salesmen when I bought PC last year.

Anybody else out there interested in complaining on every forum possible to
get Microsoft moving on a solution? Is MS already working on this? I just
want to be able to make movies and use the features I paid lots of money for!
