Of all people I never thught you would be the one asking this.

Once youhave hit print screen it places the icaptureonto your clipboard. Jut open paint or somthing, paste the mage in there and save it. You could essentially paste it anywhere ta you cul paste images, though.

I've used PrintScr before and i dont have to do ctrl + alt with it. And kyross, I'm not as stupid as that. -_- I got no clue what F Lock is. The only "lock"s i've got are Caps, Scroll, and Num.

I had this problem when I was taking pictures of everything in republic commando for a future 3D modeling movie, and after my 100 picture, the print screen button broke. I shut it down, and fired it back up and it worked fine. I don't know what to do abbout your problem. :?
