705585 2008-09-16 04:17:00 I need a screenshot of the XP and/or Vista start up splash screen for some instructional material I am producing. Is there any way I can do this apart from taking a diigital photo at the right time? Tony (4941)
705586 2008-09-16 04:21:00 No, coz even if you press prtscreen while its on the screen, you wont be able to paste it anywhere

A camera will probably be the only way you'll get a pic, or find a pic on the net somewhere

A camera will probably be the only way you'll get a pic, or find a pic on the net somewhereI was pretty sure that was the case. I just wondered if there was any smart way that I didn't know about.

705593 2008-09-16 05:31:00 As others have said google is probably the best option, but if you really wanted to produce images yourself you could do so via a virtual machine. stormdragon (6013)
