If you have XP you can use "Windows Movie Maker"
I've done it a few times, not that hard.
But, I don't know if it's on the CD as I bought my System Preloaded.
I know a few ME users have it also.

This would have to tell me no windows media support.

*Reads and writes AVI2 (OpenDML) and multi-segment AVI clips.
*Integrated MPEG-1 and Motion-JPEG decoders.
*Remove and replace audio tracks without touching the video.
*Extensive video filter set, including blur, sharpen, emboss, smooth, 3x3 convolution, flip, resize rotate, brightness/contrast, levels, deinterlace, and threshold.
*Bilinear and bicubic resampling -- no blocky resizes or rotates here.
*Decompress and recompress both audio and video.
*Remove segments of a video clip and save the rest, without recompressing.
*Adjust frame rate, decimate frames, and 3:2 pulldown removal.
*Preview the results, with live audio.

There's a version of nandub that will open .asf files. rename these to .wmv and it should work.
