After clicking Print screen, where do I find my SS?

[Thraka]

No where. I do not believe this is hooked up to Print Screen.

Download fraps, the free version will allow screenshots just not video.

If you have steam you can also have it running and use its screenshot ability as well.

You can also open Paint and use the paste command after using Print Screen.

Only works for 1 screenshot at a time though.

AFAIK this results in a blank screen.

No, it works, I've done it a few times.

For people wanting a more convenient way though, there are multiple free programs that will "catch" your use of the Print Screen button and put your numbered images of your screen grabs into the location of your choice.

Unless they fixed it recently it doesn't work in full screen mode but it does work in windowed mode. I just use fraps and set it to the prntscrn button.

The Print Screen key normally does not take screenshots of 3D applications running in full screen mode. However there are a range of other tools that will do this.

FRAPS http://www.fraps.com
Bandicam http://www.bandicam.com/
For ATI owners, the ATI Tray Tools also have a screenshot function. http://downloads.gur...oad.php?det=733

Thanks guys, I actually have FRAPS, didn't know you could do that.

I never play in windowed mode, and I took the screenshots back when Streaks always hit the CT. PrintScreen sent a copy of the on-screen image into the clipboard like it always does for me, and I was able to paste it into Paint normally.

I'm using Windows 7, if that makes any difference.

If it's not *supposed* to work, well... that's news to me, but I'm not complaining.
