Is there a way to create a "screen shot" of anything that happens to be on your moniter screen?

You can hit the "Print Screen" button on your keyboard and it will copy what is displayed on the screen to the clipboard. Then all you have to do is go into a program and "paste" it in.
Ctrl+V is a shortcut for paste.

Explore "SHIFT"/"PRINT SCREEN" and "CNTL"/"PRINT SCREEN" as well.
One of them will copy *only* the active window which is very usefull sometimes.

Theres a program they have for that i play online games such as Unreal tounement and i used to make portfolios. Theres another thatll record live video feeds from your computer screen also.Originally posted by rocketsonly
How about recording screen shots? For example during an intense shoot out on Counter Strike?
agreed totally with kermie. These progs are HUGE ram killers and love to mess with video card performance.Originally posted by KermieD
The live video one is called FRAPS. There is a free restricted trial version at https://www.fraps.com. Resolution is limited to VGA settings (if that high) on the trial version.
A better solution if you have DVI out and a digital camcorder is to actually record on the camcorder as a 2nd display off the video card. You'll get better resolution and much better framerates (running FRAPS in the background can really sap performance on games with high specs).
