Unable To Take Screenshots

Apologies if I didn't search well enough for an answer.

I am unable to take screenshots. Every time I attempt to do so, I get a "failed to convert to PNG" message, and nothing in my screenshot folder. No matter what I try to take them as- bmp, jpg, png- whether or not I get an error message, nothing in the folder.

Running in various compatibility modes hasn't helped. Nothing has helped. This is a fresh install of Windows 7 x64 Ultimate.

If this is something really simple I will feel really stupid.

If you're using dgvoodoo, that breaks the screenshot functionality in Windower.

Mine was broken at one point (and I do use dgvoodoo), then it fixed itself somehow /shrug

Your icon made your response truly amazing.

Thank you both.

Any work around for this?

This please. Something that doesn't require me to go to a lossy image format, preferred. <,<;

This command be used to take screenshot if you are using dgvoodoo

\\screenshot bmp

The above command does not work for me. I figured out another way of doing it, but sadly I have forgot. Anyone know a workaround?

windows print screen, then paste into microsoft paint. then crop/save

I tried that, but it didn't work for some reason.

If you use windows + print screen it will put them in a separate Screenshots folder. C:\Users\Username\Pictures
If you're not sure what your pc username is or want to easily find the folder just go to "This PC" and type screenshots in the search bar.

sorry but I'm getting none of this either. I'm having to use my laptop atm, which has a version of FFXI but it's very outdated with no dgvoodoo. Just can't get any other way to work on my desktop

windows snipping tool will work

its like control + alt + Shift + prntscreen key
