Is there a way to load a clip directly to the background of the main movie that loaded it. Becasue what its doing now is covering up all the stuff that was previously on the stage.

Not impossible at all
Create an empty movieclip, give it an instance name (eg “container”), put this movieclip on a layer under you content an use this action
```auto
container.loadMovie("yourfile.swf")
```
