I have been scanning pictures and using them to create a movie in MM. The
project will play through all of my pictures and music in MM. After I have
saved my project as a movie to my computer and play it back, it will get hung
up on a picture and not go onto the others after it. All of my music will
play through though. I can delete the movie file, go back to my project,
open it again and save it again as a movie to my computer and it will hang up
on a totally different picture, usually only a few minutes away. HELP! why
is it not working. Thanks!

If you save your movies into *.wmv you may have problems not only during
playback but also during splitting clips, especially if the file is too
large. Try to save the movie as AVI and play it.
If you make movies often, it is helpful to have freeware converters so you
can easily convert Quicktime to AVI or FLV to MPEG, etc.
But just try to save it as AVI in MovieMaker in case it works. I have a
200MB movie am working now and never had problems during playback. If and if
you still have problems, then the worst solution is to select a player to run
it like Nero Essential or DivX Player.
