Daddy Yankee Posted May 24, 2009 Share Posted May 24, 2009 I'm using new W7 RC1 x64. I was taking screenshots all the time with Gadwin PrintScreen, and it was working like a charm, before i installed W7. Now when I press printscreen, gadwin takes shot of something in the back, like a Firefox. When i press Alt+F9 in FM, nothing is happening, and i can't go to options/print screen always, and when i can, i get to choose web/text/printer, and when i choose text or web, i get 1KB file with just a link www.sigames.com :D Anybody have a clue what's happening? Thanks. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
arsenal_2111 Posted May 25, 2009 Share Posted May 25, 2009 Can't you just do the normal Alt+PrtSc then Paint? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

arsenal_2111 Posted May 25, 2009 Share Posted May 25, 2009 Make sure nothing else is open when you take the screenie? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

arsenal_2111 Posted May 25, 2009 Share Posted May 25, 2009 Ok, that's weird. Does W7 have 'Snip Tool'? Try searching for it Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daddy Yankee Posted May 25, 2009 Author Share Posted May 25, 2009 I dont see how to use "Snip Tool" in full screen, it can be only used with windwed mode, but that's not very usable for my 15,4" Lap Top (1280x800) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
tottenhamfmo7 Posted October 16, 2009 Share Posted October 16, 2009 I get this problem too, same for FM 09 and FM10. Snip tool only works when in windowed mode, which is not really what I want! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

rancer890 Posted November 5, 2009 Share Posted November 5, 2009 I'm having this issue as well. Is there any workaround for this? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aim_Less Posted November 5, 2009 Share Posted November 5, 2009 i assume you guys have your drivers updated right ? i am Using windows 7 ultimate 64 bits and works fine. the built in shortcut alt+F9 all screen-shots should be saved in your documents folder-> Sports interactive -> Fm2010-> screen-shots you can try using xfire or fraps Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kriss Posted November 5, 2009 Share Posted November 5, 2009 There are some nice freeware apps that'll do the job far better, the surprisingly named ScreenGrab is one I use. Alt/F12 saves to a pre designated folder in the format and resolution you set. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

magicmastermind124 Posted November 6, 2009 Share Posted November 6, 2009 Are you trying in full screen or windowed? Try it in both. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
tottenhamfmo7 Posted November 9, 2009 Share Posted November 9, 2009 Are you trying in full screen or windowed? Try it in both. Trust me, with Windows 7 you can't take a screenshot of FM using the 'Prnt Scrn' button, whether its windowed or full screen. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ty Posted November 9, 2009 Share Posted November 9, 2009 Trust me, with Windows 7 you can't take a screenshot of FM using the 'Prnt Scrn' button, whether its windowed or full screen.

tottenhamfmo7 Posted November 9, 2009 Share Posted November 9, 2009 Prnt Screen, never knew you could use Alt+F9 to take a screenshot Oh, thats weird. Are you 32 or 64 bit? Alt + F9 saves it in My Documents>Sports Interactive> FM 2010> Screenshots Saves you having to paste and save in paint! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ty Posted November 9, 2009 Share Posted November 9, 2009 I am 64bit Ahh, I will try that from now on then, does it automatically save as PNG file as well? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

SuperRedditch Posted November 10, 2009 Share Posted November 10, 2009 I had this problem. Basicially, Right click the desktop, go to personalise. It will bring up all your themes. Go to the bottom and select "Windows 7 Basic". That worked for me. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave B Middleton Posted December 3, 2009 Share Posted December 3, 2009 I can confirm this works with Windows 7 32 bit "I had this problem. Basicially, Right click the desktop, go to personalise.
