My 'Print Screen' key is goobered, any suggestions?
Seems that my print screen key only likes to work every now and again, and I don't mean the key itself, it works fine.
Sometimes it won't copy anything to the clipboard though, I've noticed this ever since switching to my massive monitor. Is there a file size restriction on the clipboard that could possibly be messing up my screeny taking? That seems like the most feasible answer, if so is there a registry hack to increase the max file size the clipboard can handle?
Thx.

I doubt there's a file size restriction, cause you can copy huge files to the clipboard. Have you got a program you can use to check the key's working properly?

I sometimes have this problem and I have to close out of Paint, then re-open it. Does that help for you..? Or, does it still act up after the fact.

Nah still not working, but then again im pasting straight in to PS... I should try pasting in to paint some time and see if that works.
I despise paint so I usually never use it, I'll give it a shot next time I'm trying for the ss action though, thx for the suggestion mate.
