The printscreen key appears to be doing something, you get the mini freeze associated with a screenshot, but no screenshot saved anywhere.

First off, when you press the printscreen key in any game, program or even just on your desktop, a screenshot is taken and stored in your PC's memory. You can't see this screenshot until you open a graphics/paint program and paste it in (ctrl+V). Here's how it works:

1. Press printscreen
2. Open Windows own Paint application, every Windows version has it since forever.
3. Press Ctrl+V and save the file in whichever format you like

Also, you can only have one screenshot taken by printscreen at a time, everytime you press printscreen a new shot is taken and the one before it is deleted. That's why I like to use Steams own built in screenshot function, just press F12 and it creates a .jpg file for your screenshot and you can take as many as you like without having to do the above mentioned stone-age procedure. You can also upload your Steam screenies to your very own Steam screenshot gallery and share it with friends, that's what I do. Phew!

Well, when I take a screenshot it goes right to this folder, no fuss no muss... instant view with no other program involved

Here's mine after taking 10+ screenshots this evening... CloD walks myserious ways I could accept it if you where using XP as there could be some mapping problem with system folders like "My Documents", but no And as you are here in this thread you're not an ATI user and we are for sure on the same Nvidia driver

My Documents is a magic folder with many paths which often cause problems for developers Here's another way to it below that is more like yours.. And the "correct" one in Windows 7 is "%USERPROFILE%\My Documents"

Sorry, I'm strictly a Clod troubleshooter

So do I - and the problem with these magic folders is that they can have different paths in different languages of the operative system... That's what they have tried to fix in Windows 7 but still problems like these occur every day I remember an especially nasty one at work there the "My Documents" folder that mapped to a file server and it did not have complete rights for the users on the level above the individual users home folders... That made updates for Adobe Reader crash with a weird error (even though it did not need any rights to the folder "upstream"). It naturally only happened on Swedish versions of Windows 7 that used a Windows 2003 R2 file server... Sigh...
