So i need to make some slideshow with photos and ocasionally videos with music. I was trying windows movie maker but it crashes all the time. Is there any good, free and simple (i just don't have the time right now to learn anything) alternative to it?

You need Picasa.

Picasa is a bit limited for what i want. I ended up downloading Adobe Premiere which goes against the whole "simple" idea. Lets see how it goes...

Perhaps (I didn't notice the 'video' stuff the first time around), but it does really good slideshows, especially if they're centred around people.

Premiere Elements is probably the one to try if the full version is a bit baffling and over the top.

All Adobe software is free to use at home.

In the same way that all software ever is free to use at home?

Yes. Although I actually bought Windows this time, and Office but only under a special deal where it was a tenner.
