In Movie Maker, edit your movie by sliding the end and beginning to the part where you want your clip to start and end. Save it. Then on PowerPoint, click Insert video from file. Select your video and save your PowerPoint presentation and you're done! It's also best to save the video file with you PPT file so you can play it on another computer.
