An old DOS based program generates a some graphics in full screen mode.
How can I save the graphics as an image file ? Print Screen key either
alone or combined with ALT, SHIFT , CTRL does not work.

Any help is highly appreciated .

You could install DOS and the application in a virtual machine. That
way, you could even run it in "windowed" mode.

Since the application runs under Windows, you can, of course, also run
the application in a virtual Windows machine.

Virtual machines may sound a bit scary to those who have never tried,
but the learning curve is actually surprisingly easy. Since the
software is now free, there is nothing to lose.

1. Run the application in a window.
2. Start a screen capture program (many are free) and capture the window.
