making a slide show

Benton, KY(Zone 7a)

I want to make a slide show with photos and add music behind them. I have the Windows Movie Maker that comes with XP and I have Roxio CD/DVD Creator also. I can make movies from a film and put them on a DVD with no problem, but I'm not sure how to do the still images. I like the Roxio program best for that, but I'm not sure how to do the slides.

In the Movie Maker program, I can drag the photos I want to use to the story board, but can't figure out how to continue. I need to images to stay on the screen for a minute or two and then fade to the next one. I found the transitions with the different fade options, but the 'help' tutorial isn't clear enough for my 'e-challenged' abilities.How do you put time in?

It can't be that difficult....I've seen these things in funeral homes...and they were not the greatest quality. I want to do a nice one for family for Christmas....can someone help me?
