How to analyze a malfunction

WORK AROUND

This procedure enables me to capture a screen image on a notebook computer
where the PrtSc key does not work

• Placed a short-cut to Electronic Keyboard in Admin Tools where it can be
accessed by clicking on Start and pointing to Admin Tools | Electronic
Keyboard.
• Captured screen to memory by clicking on the PrtSc key in the Electronic
Keyboard
• Saved imaged to Photoshop; cropped image to remove Electronic Keyboard;
saved as JPG in min. resolution.
• Inserted picture into Word, added comments and questions; saved as
document file.

It would be nice to replace the short-cut with a script file that paused to
allow capture, save, and insert operations.

Could someone help me write the script file.

Good Morning Ken,

appoligize.

yeh, that's a good idea &
work around.

incidentally, after i gave
it a bit more thought, I
think that a third party
screen printer, would
be a reasonable idea
after all.

i had forgotten that most of them
provide the option to pre program
key combinations on your keyboard
and you won't need to use the prtscn
key.

also the freeware will likely function
in a minimized state, so there
wont be any cutting or cropping
your images.

i gave you a link that can
be beneficial for shopping
around for them...

glad you have figured
out this malfunction.

I am unable to capture a screen image using the PrtSc key, nor am I able to
capture the contents of an active window using Alt PrtSc key combination.

Perhaps you may want to try a screen capture utilility:
