==========================
Go to....Start / Run...
Type moviemk.exe
Press...Enter.

If Movie Maker is installed
on your system...it will launch.

Movie Maker 2.1 is a component
of SP2...it cannot be downloaded
as a separate file. To reinstall 2.1
you have to reinstall SP2.

However...the following articles
may be useful.

What can I do if I upgrade to Windows
XP SP2 and Windows Movie Maker 2.1
is not installed successfully?
