My windows XP will not take screenshots using the PrtScr
button on the keyboard. It is definatly the PC as the
keyboard is fine. I know how to use it. It will not make
and copy the screenshot to the clipboard. I really need
this function to make screenshots for my website and I do
not know why it will not work. I have tried taking
stickey keys and filter keys off (as another site
suggested) but it has no effect.

I know exactly how to use the printscreen key/function
and how to paste the screenshot into a image editor. My
keyboard is fine wotks fine ect. IT JUST DOES NOT WORK -
NO MATTER WHAT. No matter what the keyboard, No matter
what the image editor (adobe Photoshop CS | word | Paint)
 
Is the clipboard activated in control panel add/remove programs---add/remove
windows components under accessories?
