Screenshots are black

[Thanatos]

When make a screenshot the picture always black with small bright spots(smth like that) Why?
It may be a stupid question.... but.. let it be so...

Easy fixed. Download this file:

and run the REG file. It will install into your registry and screenshots should now work.

Or use the freeware tool called ScreenshotCaptor:

PRINTSCR.REG doesn't work properly by me although indicates all the four screenshot makers i tried - to create a grained and wrong-coloured picture instead of an empty black one. Buildings are still recognizable but nothing more.
I run KaM 1.58 UC (Hungarian) having a bit old NVidia GeForce 4 graphic card. Shall this latter thing cause my problem orif what else?

Hi, it is work in my pc (gef 6600). 1.58 and 1.60 work to, I don't know whats the matter... I use a simple Paint...

@Gyula: Yeah, did you try using PrintScreen and then pasting the image into paint?

[TGWH]

He doesn't stupied, I see to Gyula that he must run the file. But it seems that in Gyula's pc the file doesn't work...

@TGWH:
Thanks, faithful comrade.

@Litude:
Today I tested your suggested paint-procedure but only could make it on an ancestral computer because currently I'm only running Linux on my everyday machine. On my only Windows XP SP2 system the copy-from-screenshot-maker-to-clipboard-and-from-there-to-mspaint-method didn't changed the picture's quality. (Anyway, it's a miracle that this block of iron is capable of running SP2.)
Do you have any more ideas?
