| 420237 | 2006-01-11 21:34:00 | Hi all I was just watching a video with WMP10 and wanted to take a screenshot. I pressed PrtScn then opened Paint and pasted and saved as jpg but when I go to open the file it just shows a blank black screen where the screenshoe should be. The outside of WMP shows fine but in the viewing area it is just plain black. I also tried it with various other players with the same result. Any advice gratefully accepted. Thanks. By the way - running Windows XP Pro with SP2 |

Now play the video and press the PrtScn button to take the screenshot, last launch your favorite photo editor and paste(ctrl-v) to get the screenshot. | CYaBro (73) | ||
