editing avi files

I have no idea where to put this, but figure this sub-forum gets a lot of traffic ..

Can anyone recommend any good freeware (shareware…) for doing avi editing ? Something super easy to use that produces something you could actually watch without getting an instant headache ? Something that doesn’t require the latest greatest version of a computer, my laptop is a few years old (XP, 1.something GHz, no idea on RAM, etc….)

My camera can take videos, but so far I’ve just made a few little experiments. I’d like to be able to save just parts of them – for example, I got a few seconds of video on those pronghorns I saw, complete with background music from the CD that was playing (Pure Moods – X-File theme XD ) Most of it was garbage, but there was a little part I’d like to clip out and save.

thanks if anyone can help out.

all the free wear i have found or video editing of conversion puts a huge watermark on your work till you pay , even though they say free. after you download it tells you about the price for the FULL version. Its a pain in the arse , i have been looking for a program to convert VOB to WMV but no luck and i have been looking for a few months now . I think it may just be easier to buy a program for conversion for 35 bucks at a store not on one of these sites though . I have a video editor PD got for me for Xmas Sony Movie Studio 9 Platinum . It has 3 different program one to edit and sync up your movie with sounds text etc. one to make DVD’s and toss themes , titles etc to already existing movies and the other coverts it to play on portable devices like the PSP and such .

thanks Necron99, sounds a bit more complicated than what I’d need. I guess I’ll probably have to look at some software at the store, though. I hate to pay for a lot of extra that I don’t need, but who knows, once I get into it I might decide to do more…

first I need to stop shaking the camera around LOL
