With this vintage of Mathematica, you might try and redirect output to an
EPS file (look at Display[] in the online help), then use something like
Ghostview to convert the EPS frames to something (eg. JPG) that a modern
program can stitch into a full length movie.

Wow!  Last time I used that was 1992 ....  Why not upgrade?  It's much much
better now.
