It is supposed to darken the screen while snipping. The actual snip should work well. If not, check that you have latest video driver from http://game.amd.com/us-en/drivers_catalyst.aspx
Alternatively, you can use ctrl+print screen to capture. Then paste into your favorite app like Photoshop or MS Paint. In PS, after capture, hit file | new.
yeh drivers up to date, the screen dosent just darken it turns totaly black so you cant see the thing your trying to snipp, i used to use 3rd party in xp because you needed too, but i dont want to go 3rd party if the tool is already there to use.
sorry forget all that, i dont know why but it seems to be working
i cant get it to work with either firefox or internet explorer running, is this built into snipping tool so i cant copy stuff from the net?
Download Free FastStone Capture: A+ Freeware - Multimedia & Design - FastStone Capture 5.3 (last freeware version)
odd, ive downloaded that FastStone Capture that Jacee put up for my and thats doing exactly the same except this time both my monitors turn white when ive got FF running!
Do you have the latest chipset and video card drivers installed? If not, that's your fix.
