Software to join two .avi movies

[petesamprs]

I just got a casio z750 digicam which also records mpeg4 movies (640x480) @ 30fps. I took two movie clips that I wanted to join into 1 long movie clip. Does anyone know what software would allow me to do this? Hopefully freeware.

thanks

Windows Movie Maker if you don't feel like spending any money right now.

There is a lso a program called Peck's Power Join that works OK, and many others...

Thanks guys.

I tried virtualdub and when I tried loading in my .avi file I got a message that said "Couldn't locate decompressor for format 'M4S2' (unknown)"

The movie plays fine in wmp10 so I think I have all the codecs I need installed already.

what gives?
