Capture a screenshot on your HP DV6000 CTO PC.
Your HP DV6000 CTO notebook PC comes loaded with the Windows XP operating system. Windows XP allows you to capture screenshots on your computer in a way that cannot be done on older Windows systems. Although your DV6000 CTO notebook contains this updated feature for capturing screenshots, you can still use the traditional method. Both methods will only take a few seconds to complete.
Instructions
1. Launch an Internet browser of your choice. Open the Web page you would like to take a screenshot of.
2. Press the "Alt" + "Fn" and "Prt Sc" keys simultaneously on your keyboard.
3. Open a word-processing program on your HP DV6000 if you want to save the screenshot in a text document. Examples of word-processing programs you can use are Microsoft Word and Open Office. If you want to save the screenshot as an image file instead of a word document, open an image-editing program such as Microsoft Paint or Photoshop.
4. Press "Ctrl" and "V" simultaneously on your keyboard. This will paste your screenshot inside of the word-processing or image-editing program.
5. Click "File" and "Save As" from the top menu bar. Give your screenshot a file name that you can remember. Click the "OK" button to save the screenshot.
6. Use the built-in Windows XP "Snipping Tool" if you don't want to use the print screen method to capture a screenshot. To use the XP snipping tool, click on your Windows "Start" button. Type "Snipping Tool" in the search box. Press "Enter" on your keyboard. The tool will open.
Hold down your left mouse button while dragging your mouse over the area of your screen you want to capture. Release your mouse button after the area has been selected. Click "File" and "Save As." Give your screenshot a name. Click "Save" to finalize the saving process.
