Microsoft PowerPoint support converting PowerPoint slides to images directly. Click "File" and choose "Save As" to export PowerPoint as out file formats.
In the pop up window, choose an image format in the "Save as Type" frame.
A prompt will show up, choose "Every Slide" to save all the PowerPoint slides as images.
Then run Windows Live Movie Maker and click "Home" > "Add videos and photos" to import all the output PowerPoint images.
Tips:
During the PowerPoint to image conversion process, because all the animations, transitions, music, video clips and internal hyperlinks have been removed, so you should further edit PowerPoint images in Windows Live Movie Maker to create a good movie.
