VirtualDub once read WMV's, but does not anymore due to an issue with Microsoft contacting the author and basically saying, "We own the format, you're not allowed to use it." ... this was quite a few years back (2000?). That said, other people out there have created versions of VirtualDub that will read WMV's, since the source code is available. Or if you manage to find an old old old version of it before the incident.
If you're willing to fiddle through a more technical option, you can try mplayer. I don't believe the Windows port has any other option for displaying the video other than in Overlay mode (which means you can't printscreen it), but mplayer does allow you to dump the video frames to tga/jpeg, just have to feed it the right starting/stopping time points (or else you get the entire video's worth of frames dumped).
