Title: unusual snapshot mode problem
Post by: jmdude1 on July 21, 2009, 10:45:21 PM
hi all,
im having an odd problem with snapshot mode, well its odd for me anyways.  when i press ctrl + shft + s nothing happens.  it used to work on my old desktop computer but i have a new HP laptop now.
im also using vista home premium 64 as well.  the menu snapshot option still works, but if i want to hide the menus and take a pic nothing happens.  the rest of the game runs perfectly fine.

does anybody have any ideas on this? thanks for your help.

Just press Print Screen key on your keyboard and then open paint, click paste and save it.
