shift & Print Screen, ... and then open Microsoft Photo Editor, create a new file/doc, and then paste the capture in the new file. You want to size the new file according to what you want when you first open it.

Ok...

To get the content of the ACTIVE window only push and hold Alt then push PrtScn. to get everything shown on the screen all you have to do is push PrtScn. I'm using WinXP Pro right now and it works.

when you push the buttons windowss copies that information to the windows clipboard. Open photoshop or any other image editing software create a new document paste it into the window and manipulate further

Just to re-iterate:

1. Hit Print Screen key
2. Open Wordpad (windows+R | wordpad | enter)
3. Click in the document (if the cursor is not already active in the document)
4. Hit CTRL-V together (for paste).

Do you get anything? What happens when you do this?
