Full-Screen Capture

The easiest way to create a full-screen capture in Win95, Win98 is still by pressing the Print Screen key. That action sends a copy of the screen to the Clipboard. To view the capture, select Start/Run, type mspaint and press Enter. Once Paint opens, select Edit/Paste to paste the image from the Clipboard into the Paint window. Choose File/Save As to name and save it as a BMP, JPEG, GIF file. The BMP is the format most available to users but not always the best way. When saving in the JPEG and GIF format they save in a smaller size. Which is what you’re looking for when sending files over the Internet.

NOTE:

Another way to access the Paint programs is to:

  1. Select Start

  2. Programs

  3. Accessories and Select Paint
