Hit the "PrtScn" button on your keyboard, then paste into your favorite editing software.

Piece of cake. YOu see that button on the key board that says "Print Screen"? (next to scroll lock and pause). Press that. Then open paint (or your favorite graphic program), and paste the image. Save and post.

lol, but I don' think he needs that. He said "desktop," not "window." So take that!

Just for your info...if you want to just take a screen shot of an open window (instead of your whole screen), hit Alt while pressing Prt Scr (Print Screen).
