hmmm thats a new one for me

I recommend downloading a program called FRAPS available here http://www.fraps.com/

with the free version you can record screen shots that will open in MSpaint

you can also record 30 second movie clips that will be saved as .avi movies

I use FSScreen.

It is a small, free downloadablr program. It will store your screenshot to a desktop file. Real easy to use.

You can find it by googling FSScreen.

Dutchie-one, search for threads about changing screen resolution. There is a tool somewhere. In the config file you can also activate a line that makes screenshots by pressing the print screen button and saves it as a TGA-file. Maybe then they come out alright.

Or just press [print] then [alt]+[tab] back to your desktop and paste the screenshot into some simple graphics program like paint.

This would be also the way our grandfathers did it

Hi, right click on black 'image' then see if there is an 'open with'; if so, choose another program from the drop down list i.e. Windows picture and fax viewer.

Hit the 'print screen' key then open with Paint. My personal favourite is Saint Paint

The only thing that will fix the 'black' screenshots is a full reinstall.

It's a known issue but a rare one, we have no idea what causes it.

Hello again Guy`s printscreen is also not working the problem is not that I can not see them in Saint Paint ed.
Canovaro mentioned that I have to change something in a config file in whitch one ?
I see a lot of guy`s who placed them on the forum so it works for them.
I hope that one of them can tell my whats going wrong.

Sorry Danlisa I have reindstall the game several times the last three weeks
so that is the last thing I want to do right now.

Thanks Dutchie-one
