    theres a button on your keyboard right at the top should say "PrtSc" normally next to the "F12" button. Press this and it will take a screenshot , open up your Paint and paste it in there.

    Another tip, if you hold down alt while pressing prtscrn it just gives you a screenshot of the active window.
    It's my problem, it's my problem
    If I feel the need to hide
    And it's my problem if I have no friends
    And feel I want to die
