2 GB of ram really isn't sufficient. I have 16 GB and I still OCCASIONALLY crash when I have a dual premiere pro/after effects setup. Depends on how intense the rendering is.
Regardless of what you're doing, you want a minimum of 6 GB of ram, preferably 8+

| But that is expensive. I would also need a PC that can support a beter RAM upgrade The max mine could handle is 4GB. |

Step 1) Avoid laptops at all costs. (literally, they cost a lot more)
If you are on a budget, build your own! Its a lot easier than it's made out to be, and you can get a better computer for about 50% of the price of any store-bought computer.
But honestly, there isn't anything you can do about low ram. Windows Movie Maker doesn't consume as much processing power as others, but you still need a good bit.
I'm thinking that 2-4GB should let you edit shorter videos without crashing. For the best support, contact microsoft/go to their forums and see if they can help. It might be a bad download or a different part of your computer acting up, we don't know without checking really long crash logs. |

The final product or all of the clips combined?
At what point did it crash? |
