How to take snapshot in Boot camp

Question

My Mac Book is booting in Win XP. How can I capture snapshot.

Answer 1

My Mac Pro has a Mac aluminum keyboard. I found the F14 key to be equivalet to Prt Scn key on PC. Your Windows BootCamp control panel interface has keyboard help some extracted here:
{The following table tells you how to type PC key commands on Apple external and built-in keyboards. For details, see: docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=304270
PC key command Apple external keyboard Built-in Mac keyboard/Apple Wireless Keyboard
Print Screen: F14 / Fn-Shift-F11} I've seen F13 mentioned elsewhere but for this keyboard it's F14.
In PC speak, pressing Prt Scn copies what is displayed on Monitor to clip-board. Unlike Leopard's user friendly equivalent, it does not create a .png/.jpg to desktop for you. If you open Paint accessory there is a Paste function that will show clip board and you then can save it as zzz.jpg to desktop etc. Because this is a tedious process, I have code to do what Leopard does, so that after pressing Ptr Scn; when executed, will place Picture(NN).Jpg on desktop, incrementing NN and saving need to go through Paint. The code is Vbs script and you can use it by copying text between, == lines then pasting the copy to a new text document somewhere on your C:\ drive. Then after saving, rename it to, say, PasteScr.Vbs
You can make a shortcut to this on Desktop to use whenever you have done your Prt Scn.
This works in Vista & Windows 7 and should work in XP.

delay = 300
paintWindowTitle = "untitled - Paint"
set shl = createObject("wscript.Shell")
set fso = CreateObject("Scripting.fileSystemObject")
desktopFolder = shl.specialFolders("desktop")
if right(desktopFolder, 1) "\" then
desktopFolder = desktopFolder & "\"
end if
i = 1
do
filePath = desktopFolder & "Picture" & i & ".jpg"
if not fso.fileExists(filePath) then exit do
i = i + 1
loop
shl.run "mspaint"
wscript.sleep delay
shl.appActivate paintWindowTitle
wscript.sleep delay
shl.sendKeys "^v"
wscript.sleep delay
shl.sendKeys "^s"
wscript.sleep delay
shl.sendKeys filePath
wscript.sleep delay
shl.sendKeys "%s"
wscript.sleep delay
shl.sendKeys "%{f4}"
