so you press ctrl and print screen together, then open your paint thingy and right click and then paste and nothing happens, is that exactly what your doing? when you right click is there an option to paste?

In exact stages

1. Put what you want to capture on the screen in front of you
2. Press Print Scrn key
3. Open a new painting/canvas/(whatever your prog calls it) in your paint prog
4. Hold down Ctrl and press V

Bethom, once you have saved the screen and got paint on your screen, click on the little rectangle that is below the Edit button, then you can right click and paste onto the paint window.
