You have to Publish/Finish/Save your WMM (Windows Movie Maker) video first before you can convert it to an .avifile.

To Publish/Finish/Save your WMM project:

> With your project in the Time-line view of WMM
> Click on View and Tasks, to open the task pane
> Under Publish to ---- (Windows Vista v2.6)
> Under Finish Movie (Windows Xp v2.1)
> Choose - This computer
> Name the movie and select a destination to save it in
> Click Next
> Select option: Best quality for playback on my computer (recommended)
> Click Publish or Finish (depending on your WMM version)

Once the video is Published/Finished you can convert it to an .AVI using a video converter. Free video converters are available online. Simply Google: free video converters.
