A couple ways to do this, with your Flip software you can choose create movie, this will save your video as a file Windows Movie Maker can read (.wmv), .avi files are also readable.
If this is not working (not sure why it wouldn’t) then you will need a conversion software, here’s an excellent one I use and it’s free (called, Any Video Converter) – http://www.any-video-converter.com/
Either way should solve your dilemma, have fun & make great movies!

windows movie maker will not accept Flip videos (mainly in mp4 format) directly, u need to encode to windows movie maker compatible avi, wmv, mpg, asf files, for doing this, u need a Flip video decoder or converter, Flip video to Windows Movie Maker converter is designed for this purpose, u may as well
Well, most cameras record in MPEG-4 format (an .MP4 or .MOV file). However, Windows Movie Maker only supports AVI, WMV, MPEG-1, etc files, so it’s difficult for us to import MP4 files into Windows Movie Maker directly.
What you need is a free converter to convert mp4 files to wmv that windows movie maker supports.
I recommend a completely free converter called WinFF, you can find the download link and also the tutorial on how to use it at http://www.photo-to-dvd.com/tutorial/windows-movie-maker-mp4.html Of course, i f you want to be convenient and make more dazzling movies ,you can turn to some powerful commercial movie making software.
Hope it can help you!
windows movie maker doesn’t support mpeg-4 video file, you should change it to avi or wmv.
