use the Print Screen | SysRq key on your Keyboard ... then start paint and Ctrl - V or Edit -> Paste ... and save it As JPEG if you want small file size ...

PRINT SCREEN key for the whole screen

ALT+ PRINT SCREEN for the current selected window

then you must paste (CTRL + V) onto MSpaint or your favourite image editing program. I use Irfanview.

Press the PrintScreen button (the one on top of your keyboard after the F keys)

this copies an image of your desktop into the clipboard. Open up an image editing program (eg. MS Paint) and paste it in there, and save it.. voila! Hope this is what you're looking for...
