I have the same problem in the past.

1. Open Windows Media Player. Select Tools - Options.


2. Select Perfomance tab and click on Advanced. button.


3. Now uncheck Use Overlays. Click OK.

or try this:

* Instead of the Print Screen Method - try pressing “CTRL+I”. This pops up a save as window after capturing the screenshot
* After you open Window Media Player. Go to Tools | Options | Performance Tab. You will see a picture similar to the first image above. Reduce the “Video acceleration” from the default Full to None, click ok and then close down media player. Next open the file you want to take a still using the Print Screen method - from press ALT and the PrintScrn key to copy an image of media player to the clipboard.
