Problem capturing a Print Screen


Recommended Posts

Posted

I enterd Start|Run clipbrd.exe and found the ClipBook Viewer empty.

 

I entered Start|Admin Tools|Event Viewer|System

Seleted a warning message and right clicked on Propertis - a detailed

description of the waraning was displayed in a pop-up window

 

I placed the cursor in the pop-up window and pressed the Alt, PrtScr keys

simualtaneously.

 

I enterd Start|Run clipbrd.exe and found the ClipBook Viewer empty. Can

someone tellme why the details of the warning were not there?

Did you try pasting it in something instead of using thre clipboard viewer?

What if you do the entire screen?

Yes, with cursor outside the pop-up window I simulataneously pressed Alt

PrtScr keys. Then I opened WordPad and trired to paste. Nothing went in.

Full screen (Print Screen only)?

Re: Problem capturing a Print Screen

 

Do it this way,

 

Open Start|Admin Tools|Event Viewer|System

Select a warning message and right click on Properties - a detailed

description of the warning is displayed in a pop-up window.

CLICK on the Button with the picture of two pages.

NOW paste the infomation you captured.

Re: Problem capturing a Print Screen

 

I wonder whats up with OP using Alt and Print scrn keys in order to do

screen captures?

 

I've never had to use a combo of keys - I just press the Print scrn/System

key on my 102 key keyboard, and then I can paste the capture in MSPaint; As

a new image in another painting application such as Paintshop Pro 8 - or use

Paste as Special... to place the captured image as a bitmapped object in a

Wordpad rich text format document.

"Print Screen" alone = whole screen.

"Alt" + "Print Screen" = active window.

Re: Problem capturing a Print Screen

 

Not on my machine. If PrtScr nothing is captured into clipbook viewer.

If I Alt PrtScr hing is captured.

 

What could be wrong? How do you trace the problemto its source?

Perhaps some graphics application you have installed has taken over

these features. I have a program PrintKey V2.3 which changes the

default operations.

Interesting, how can I get PrintKey v2.3

Re: Problem capturing a Print Screen

 

Hi,

 

I found PrtKey on the Internet and have it installed on the notebook that

will not perform PrtSct operations. It made a scan and reported no problems.

Is there a particular operation I should perform to see if graphics

application is interferring with PrtScr command?

Re: Problem capturing a Print Screen

 

Hi Elmo,

 

If this is a dupliate reply, I appoligize. I didn't see a post of the

reply I sent you earlier so I am repeating it.

 

I downloaded PrtKey and ran the scan successfully, now how should I use it

to see if a graphics program is interferring with PrtScr operation.

I was hoping that the utility would reassign the PrtScrn operations and

get them working again. Prtkey won't help find out what is blocking the

PrtScrn key, just redirect them to its utility.
