Copy your private key into a file, eg privatekey.txt

In Linux,from your Ethereum-Wallet subdirectory, type

./resources/node/geth/geth account import privatekey.txt

In Windows,from your Ethereum-Wallet subdirectory, type

resources/node/geth/geth.exe account import privatekey.txt

In both the above options, you will have to enter a password twice to encrypt your new account information.

You can now start Ethereum-Wallet and the new account will be loaded into the wallet.
