Free Windows Movie Maker Alternative?

im...LOST

I'm just interested in an alternative to Movie Maker just out of curiosity, really. But I'm interested in Free software. I know there is a stickied thread with suggestions but they are all costly.

All, I will be doing is cutting video clips, putting music in, having text as and intro/Credits etc. Very basic stuff.

Thanks!

I downloaded it but it does not seem to want to run on my computer. I keep getting fatal runtime errors..

Any other suggestions?

Buy a Mac and use iMovie? TBH I'm not really a PC person.

Actually, my brother has a Mac but unfortunately it does not have iMovie on it. It's a Laptop that's about 3-4 years old. Can you download it again do you know?

It comes as part of the iLife package pre-installed on new computers for free. But for older ones you have to buy it. Also it might not work on a computer that old. Check the system requiements at http://store.apple.com/Apple/WebObjects/irlstore.woa/wa/RSLID?mco=4204052C&nplm=MA166

Try this for $9 (costs €99 here) and it's legit. Exactly what you're looking for and very user-friendly.
