How do you take a snap shot on your comp?
I cant find anything on it in Help or tech support.

on your keyboard by the F12 button there is a button called print screen, just press it, and then go to a paint editor and paste it, that simple

Stormy is correct. But if you want more selective screen capture there are software packages that will do all kinds of effects.

Larry_OHF · 10-16-2004, 06:23 PM

Did you get all of that, Tasslehoff?

BTW...your name sounds like something I'd hear in a Harry Potter novel.

I just wanted you to know that.

Hmm... he could also be referring to a 'snapshot' of the computer in the sense that it notes various settings in the computer so that it can revert to them if there is a serious error.

"Tasslehoff Burrfoot" is a Kender from the DragonLance series.

Oy [img]smile.gif[/img] Please define "snapshot". It could be a screen print (print screen or alt-print screen, to capture just the current window). It could also be a restore point in XP (start, accessories, system tools, system restore).
