Taking screenshot causes CTD

[OuNiS]

Hi,

After installing DX9HiResFix (taken from LSH 3) I noticed that using PrintScreen, application generate screenshot but CTD occur.
I have tested it on vanilla, WAC, GWX, LSH3 and this bug was always present.
Have anyone met this problem?

(It happens on Windows 7, on WinXP I didn't notice such problem)

Hi !

Yes, this is under Win7 an very known problem (I´ve the same problem/Win7 64 bit). There is currently no solution for it !

Disable ResFix (not recommended !) or try extern Freeware Screenshot Tools, e.g. Howie´s Qick screen Tool: http://www.howiesfunware.com/loadSideBarShareware.html > got to "Misc Software" on the left side you´ll find the Tool to download !

Best regards,

In this situation I propose set enableScreenshots key to 0 in d3d9.cfg file to avoid accidently pressing this key.
I have tried to use software which you recomended but this application only takes screens from desktop not from video screen.
Before that I have tried to use Fraps but when I have taken screenshot only blank (black) screen was saved to file.
