====================================
Not a common issue and I can only offer
some ideas. If you discover the fix...please
share it with this newsgroup.
Maybe some maintenance would help:
(260897) How to Delete the Contents of the
Temporary Internet Files Folder

Running Disk Cleanup, Error Checking and
Defrag on a regular schedule is a good idea.

Tool in Windows XP

(315265) How to Perform Disk Error Checking
in Windows XP
http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=315265
(check the two boxes..."Automatically fix file
system errors" and "Scan for and attempt
recovery of bad sectors") the utility will run
the next time you restart your computer.
(run error checking repeatedly until it finds
no errors)

And it may help to add more RAM or to increase
the size of your Virtual Memory Paging File.

Thanks John,
but there's no lack of disk space, there's 512 MB RAM, and I've done bigger
photostories before. And, as I said, the problem has been posted before by
somebody else.
The image file is only 3 MB, and the problem occurs with mp3, wma and
photostory-generated music.
