Windows Xp will not print screen (screenshot)

[Lee]

My windows XP will not take screenshots using the PrtScr
button on the keyboard. It is definatly the PC as the
keyboard is fine

Press PrtScrn, then open Paint or Word and paste the image.

It does not send the page to the printer, if you want a hard
copy, print from the application.

Greetings --

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.
