I use Virtualdub to edit video

After installing old version of video editing software, I found that it can't handle my video which in Avi format. After a while I figure out that this old software can't read new avi format and to use it I have to convert my video to old Avi Format.
So, now the question is, how to convert my avi to old avi...and the answer is Virtualdub. I open my video using virtualdub and save it back to old avi format.
