Is there a way to print screen the Windows logon screen that appears before
Windows loads?
Thanks

Exactly which screen are you looking to print?
If you want to print the Welcome screen, do the following,
Start Windows and logon to your account.
Hit the Start button and select Log off.
Select Switch Users.
Note: I've been able to select Log off and have this procedure
work just as well.
This should bring you back to the Welcome Screen.
Hit the Alt + Print Screen keys at the same time.
Log back on to your account.
Open Paint (Start -> Run -> mspaint.exe).
In Paint, go to Edit -> Paste.
You should now see the Welcome screen image.
You can save it in your favorite image file format or print
directly from Paint.

If you're looking to capture another screen, post back or
search here:

I am trying to print or save the screen print for the "Log On To Windows"
screen. It is a networked PC and we don't have the switch users option.

When you say "networked" I'm guessing you're referring to a
domain. If that's the case, are you able to use the Remote
Desktop Connection feature in your domain? If you can, the
following should get you the image you're after:

On your computer, go to Start -> All Programs -> Accessories ->
Communications -> Remote Desktop Connection.
Hit the Options button.
Set up the following configuration.
1. On the Display tab move the slider in the "Remote Desktop
Size" box to the middle position. You can't have it running in
full screen mode.
2. Just to be on the safe side, click on the Local Resources
tab. In the Keyboard section, change it to "On the local
computer".
3. Enter the name or local IP address of a system on which
Remote Desktop Connection has been enabled. You don't actually
have to logon to the computer. You just have to start the
procedure. You can enter whatever you want for a user name and
domain. Leave the password box blank.
4. Hit the connect button.

You should now be able to use the Alt + Print Screen buttons on
your computer to capture the image. Once again, paste the image
into Paint and you can edit it, save it or print it.

If this doesn't work, you might consider using a digital camera
to capture the image.

Good luck

Chances are,NO

In thinking about it, I think I came up with one way
that might work -- requires 2 pc's though. Remote
desktop -- open the connection to the other computer
and you now have the login screen (I think) in a normal
window you can copy. Might give that a try (have not
tried it, but I have used the remote desktop in the past).

Other option is a digital camera set to a slow shutter
speed on a tripod ;-)

phone :)
