Computer screen turning black?

How do you take a pic of a movie on ur computer using print screen without it turning black when you paste it?

  • I have a Vista computer. This is what I do. Pause the movie> Hit Print Screen> Paste to Paint. But when I paste it, it is just a black image. Is there anyway that I can fix that?

  • Answer:

    It doesn't work like that. You can't take the screen shot (that you called: pic) just by pressing print-screen button. Usually a video player (like windows classic player) gives the functionality that take a snap shot of video and store it as a Image file. use windows classic player for it. Hope it helps.

Don't use paint. You must have a picture reader program. Open that and paste there.

You need to google for a screen shot / screen capture program.
