The smarter solution would be to forget about Movie Maker and use a good app for video editing, the card that you´re using comes with Ulead video studio wich is not bad at all, but if you need an app more complete try Vegas, you can find it at sonicfoundry.com.

I don´t think that using directx 9 is a good idea, the Ati 7500 is not directx9 complaint so instead of solving problems it may add a lot of new troubles.

If you want to get your final project in divx format, first capture in *.avi windows standar, do all your editing and when everything is done then encode to divx, this way you can get a better quality and save problems with your apps.
