Steam, my graphics card software, fraps, the in game screenshot feature (if i remap it from printscreen key) all take screenshots without the AA rendered.

The printscreen key appears to be doing something, you get the mini freeze associated with a screenshot, but no screenshot saved anywhere.

They don't get saved to disk for me either, but they are in the copy buffer so when starting an image processing software I can paste the latest captured image into that...

OK, after you have pressed the button "print screen" in the game (the default for screen shot), start Microsoft Paint (under "Accessories" in the "Programs menu"). Then select "New" and then press "CTRL+V" or "Paste" from the menu.

EDIT: You beat me to it addman

First off, when you press the printscreen key in any game, program or even just on your desktop, a screenshot is taken and stored in your PC's memory. You can't see this screenshot until you open a graphics/paint program and paste it in (ctrl+V). Here's how it works:

1. Press printscreen
2. Open Windows own Paint application, every Windows version has it since forever.
3. Press Ctrl+V and save the file in whichever format you like

Also, you can only have one screenshot taken by printscreen at a time, everytime you press printscreen a new shot is taken and the one before it is deleted. That's why I like to use Steams own built in screenshot function, just press F12 and it creates a .jpg file for your screenshot and you can take as many as you like without having to do the above mentioned stone-age procedure. You can also upload your Steam screenies to your very own Steam screenshot gallery and share it with friends, that's what I do. Phew!

Well, when I take a screenshot it goes right to this folder, no fuss no muss... instant view with no other program involved

Here's mine after taking 10+ screenshots this evening... CloD walks myserious ways I could accept it if you where using XP as there could be some mapping problem with system folders like "My Documents", but no And as you are here in this thread you're not an ATI user and we are for sure on the same Nvidia driver
