chob Posted March 13, 2010 Share Posted March 13, 2010 Hi guys, for some reason on my laptop I can't take screenshots of my game, when i press print screen then paste to paint it always pastes my desktop background or the web page i'm on instead of the the shot in game. When i'm on my desktop pc it works fine but thats on Windows XP, is theresomething different you have to do on Win7? Also on my laptop i'm running the game through steam (no DVD drive) but on my deskyop comp i run off the disk. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ThfcJoe Posted March 13, 2010 Share Posted March 13, 2010 Do Alt + F9 then it should be in screenshots folder in FM. My Docs > Sports Interactive > Football Manager 2010 > Screenshots Should be there. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dees-Blake Posted March 13, 2010 Share Posted March 13, 2010 The old way is a hassle compared to Alt + F9 though... incredibly easy to do, and a lot better than using Paint imo. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snoop Robbie Rob Posted May 22, 2010 Share Posted May 22, 2010 ALT+F9 doesn't work for my friend on windows 7, nor does the old print screen to paint. There is no screenshots folder, how do you make one happen so they auto save in there? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
