Problem with PrintScreen from Games?

by Ed Hidde » Wed, 18 Apr 2001 01:37:08

I was working with my Dad's computer last night and he wants to save screen
captures of replays for a screen saver he's building. I tried to show him
how I did them on my computer (with no problems) but on his computer
everytime I would do an Alt-PrintScreen or even just a print screen from
within the game, it would copy the desktop and whatever was open on the
desktop and not the capture from the game.

Anyone else have this? I duplicated the exact same steps on my system and it
works correctly! So I KNOW it's not me. The major difference between our
systems is that he is running Win98 and I'm on WinME, but I wouldn't think
that would make the Screen Capture behave differently.

Any sugesstions would be greatly appreciated!
