I'm not sure where to start looking on this machine. Print Screen gets the
whole window as it should, ALT+PrintScreen does not catch the active window.
Is there a keyboard map that might have been messed up? Could another APP
have grabbed this set? (Nothing happens when I press it, and I'm running
Procexp.exe to see if any hidden apps start)

System is clean of all possible malware.

Keyboard does work for this combination on other systems (Win2K, Win2003).
Other ALT keystrokes work just fine.
