Hellooo

I have been busy working in parallels xp and I went to do a print screen and noticed my macbook doesn't have a printscreen button! With OS X I would use grab but I want to keep it all in xp. Is this possible?

Any help on this would be great!!!

Thanx

What does 'Console Screenshot' do under the VM menu?

Where abouts is that?

Er... In Parallels, choose VM > Console Screenshot

But re-reading your post, that is probably the same as Grab inside Mac OS X, which is not what you want. Hmm.

I wonder if you can do it from the on-screen keyboard viewer thingy inside XP?

You could download one of those screenshot programs.

I have the same problem in windows with my mac keyboard

I am using ati tray utils, but there are lots of free screenshot type programs. Or something like paint shop pro which has a screenshot function.

Thanx for the replys

I guess I will just use the screenshot bit of parallels.

Bit of a paine but not too bad
