howto take screenshots XP
 

Hi I just installed XP for the first time and I am having
difficulties taking screenshots of movies

i press print screen then paste it in PSP
then i try cut it out when i drag it it drags away and just leaves black

any tips on taking screenshots of movies in XP...

thanks..

Snagit does the job. Or use VirtualDub to take out a specific frame

yep .... Virtual Dub all the way !!

if you work with video, make this site your bible :thumbsup

camtasia does that too i think

that piece of shit snagit also does the same thing as PSP

i take the screenshot
then when i cut out the video it drags away and just leaves
a blank black window without a movie in it
