If you have another movie program, stick with it, because Windows Movie Maker is almost famous for its temperment. It freezes randomly so you have to save every five seconds.

But if you are willing to try it anyway, here goes:

I'm not sure on how you capture scenes from the movie, but if you want to include certain clips/music files in your creation, you go to File, then Import into Collections and then look for whatever it is you want to include.
Next, you place the clips on the storyboard in the order you want them to go in. To add music, you can alternate between storyboard and timeline. You simply place the music file in the track below.

To capture images from a video in WMM, import the video, choose a scene and play or fast forward until you get to the frame you want then click the little camera icon under the screen. ^^

This also should've been in Questions on the main site.

Something be up with the saving process of your WMM, probably. Not the first time I've heard of it.
