I hope this is the right forum.

I often see shots of desktops showing OCs, temps, benching, stability, etc....

What programs are you guys using?

You press Print Screen and paste it onto Paint where you can save it.

No problem man, you learn something everyday. I remember wondering the same thing (a long time ago though ).

I knew that!

Just wanted to say that to capture only the active window you use ALT+PrtScn, saves you the crop-job.

Vista also has a built in program called Snipping Tool. It allows you to take a fullscreen shot, window shot, or a shot based on your selection (dragging a select box over the area)
