    I'm looking for a fairly basic video/dvd editing program for Vista Home Premium. I just want to be able to take a video from a camcorder and delete parts of it and recombine other parts of it. Suggestions on a good program for this would be great - I'm willing to pay for the program if necessary.

    Windows Movie Maker. (It should be built-in)

    With creativity, you can do alot with it

    avidemux is also good.

    If you are willing to pay, Ulead VideoStudio is an easy program to use.

    I used Ulead once and I thought it was confusing and troublesome. But it's been awhile...

    I would recommend Windows Movie Maker instead of paying for a lower-end program.
