Screenshot question for a player from long ago ?

[sixstrings5859]

Been into combat flight sims since 1998. Have a windows 7 64 bit gaming pc for older sims. How do i take screenshots in win7 ? have the CFS2 screenshot tool but forgot how to use it. Tried selecting the microsoft key+ print screen, but does not work. Is there another key combination for it, or how does the CFS2 screenshot tool work ? Thanks from a guy trying to enjoy the " Golden Era ". Regards ,scott

Hi Scott,
Shift + print screen should work.

Had to use the print screen key + use microsoft paint for the pictures. Works perfectly. Windows 7 is a bit different. Learning to get back into it. Forgot some things. Love windows 7 64bit. Nothing tops it yet.

I have one that works fine in Windows 7 called: M-Grab.

Hi Scott,
Shift + print screen should work.

THEN...
Open the image file in MS Paint, crop or whatever & save in whatever format suit you.

You can also use a nice free tool called fsscreen. It is available at Flightsim.com

I've gotta second that recommendation for FSScreen, I've been using that one since Windows 98 for everything (not just flight simulation).
