That was back in May 2007, since then I have found a regisrty key too enable print screen video in Vista.

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Media
Center\Service\Video

Value: EnablePrintScreen
Type: DWord (32 bit)
Contents: 0x00000001

Ah, those heady days of May 2007 !  It was an innocent time...

Nice work. Would that reg change apply for x64 as well ??

Still, I prefer the snipper :)
