    Hi, just wondering what keys to press to take a 'snapshot' jpg image of whatever is on the screen. Used to be able to do this but have completely forgotten how. Thanks!

    Press the Print Screen button, usually denoted by denoted by Prt Scr or something like that.

    Then paste the image to your desired location!

    Press Prt Sc, usually found on the top right hand side of your keyboard next to Insert/Delete etc..

    To print just the selected window press Alt Prt Sc.

    Then go to start - all programs - accessories - paint - click edit then paste then save as whatever you wish.

    Also, if you want to print the application your in rather than the whole screen (I.E the startbar etc.) just press ALT + Print Screen
