Hi

Depending on which make of keyboard you have - try the manufacturer's web
site to see if there are any XP compatible drivers for it.

Do you have an F-Lock key - if so toggle it to see if it has an effect.
Could use this program if urgent

Are you saying that you've used the Clipboard Viewer (Start > Run
Clipbrd.exe) and verified that nothing gets copied to the Clipboard
Click to expand...
when you press the <PrtScn> key?

Pressing the <PrtScn> key copies the entire display to the
clipboard. Pressing <ALT>+<PrtScn> copies only the active Window to
the clipboard (iow, into RAM). To view the screen capture, open a
graphics program, such as MS Paint, and press <CTRL>+V. This will
paste the contents of the clipboard (your screenshot) into the open
file, and allow you to view it or save it as a file for later use.
