        Hit the "print screen" key on your keyboard.

        Then go to "start" - then "run" and type "mspaint.exe"

        Hit "enter" - The hold the "ctrl" key and then hit you "v" key.

        You should see your screen. You can save it as jpg or bmp among other common file types.

        jpg is more efficient.

              I was going to say pressing Alt and F4 works good.... :D

              Two options for screenshots: Either do the above copy and paste to a paint file and save it, or just paste it straight into a word document. Paint tends to lose quality, but pasting it straight into a word document should be ok.

                    If I could afford a Mac, Like I told you enough times then i would have one. Because I want Garage band. But also because school's don't teach the mac programs. Bill gates has this shit hole country by the balls.
