Use the print screen option on the keyboard. You can use AVI Screen classic, its a free software where you can capture screen shots in high quality.

Answer 2

Short version of the other answers: When you have a screen you want to 'capture', just press Print Screen key.

The screen shot is now on the computer clipboard and you can right clk and Paste in Paint / any photo program / any word processor / email etc.

Once on the clipboard the screen shot is just another pic that you can do what you want as you would any pic.

No additional software required.

Answer 3

For Windows XP

For this demonstration, ensure that you are connected to the Internet.

Then Double click on the Internet Explorer icon on your Desktop until it opens a Web Page.

After the Web Page loads, press the Print Screen (Prnt Scrn) button on your keyboard.

Windows will send the entire contents of your Web Page to the Clipboard in graphic format.

Now open up the Windows Paint Program by first clicking on your Start Button.

Then move your mouse over the All Programs icon to display all Start Menu folders.

If your Start Menu is set to the Classic View, move your mouse over the Programs folder instead.

Now, move your mouse onto the Accessories menu folder until it expands.

Now click on the Paint icon to launch the Microsoft Paint Program.

Then click on the word Edit, which is contained in your top tool bar area.

This will pull down a menu for you to now click on Paste.

Notice how Windows pastes the entire contents of your Web Page into the Paint program.

And all the tools of the Paint Program are available to reduce, enlarge and Print the contents.

To Print, click on the word File, which is contained in your top tool bar area.

This will pull down a menu for you to now click on Print.
