press prt scr button on your keyboard and then open a image program like paint for example. in paint choose paste from the menu and there you go.

if for some reason print screen won't work for you, there's many screen capture programs in the net.
Not all is lost.

Screen capture programmes don't all work because they can't cope with DirectX ...... try HyperSnap DX4
Plenty of reviewed ArmA missions for you to play

If you use HyperSnap DX4, make sure you have enabled the option regarding DirectX. I used to use HyperSnap when I had my old voodoo 2, but perhaps if you have an AGP card you won't need to use the directx thing. Give it a try and see if it works.

HyperSnap works great and I love it. But, being a cheapskate, I downlaoded the free version that puts the annoying stamp in all your pictures.

But you can shaft the HyperSnap people out of their money and not buy the registered version by exporting your pictures to Paint and cutting out the stamp there.

Good luck with your editing  :D

I find that Grab Clip Save works quite well.

You don't take screenshots of cutscenes, do you? If you do, that is the problem. The cutscenes have in OFP -as long as you don't change it, because I think it can be changed when making the script for the scene- cinema borders. You can't do too much about it.

If you do not take screenshots of cutscenes, then I don't know why it happens. Perhaps something related with your graphic card or something like that.
