    hit print screen and then open up Paint and paste it there, then save.

        Then the your keyboard button must be messed up.

          If you have Vista you can use the "snipping tool."

          Its a lot easier.

                Well, what I usually do is.

                Print Screen - Start - Programs - Accessories - Paint

                Then press Ctrl and V

                  you may have to toggle your "F Lock" key before you try the printscreen. I had a keyboard once that the F key toggled prtscn and sysrq.

                      Or sometimes even have paint open first and minimized.

                        System request (often abbreviated SysRq, SysReq, Sys Rq or Sys Req) is a key on keyboards for PCs that has no standard use. :laugh:

                        pause and break have been around since the days of using the command line. you would do a DIR to get a directory listing, and u could hit pause to pause it. or if you were running a .bat file, or program you could hit break which would stop it.

                          I kind of begs the question "Why are they still there!!!???"

                            Pause and break are useful in VB etc. if your program inadvertently get's stuck in an infinite loop.

                              Nope. Tried that. It just destroys the program and you have to go have play around with process manager :yay:
