Reputation: 152  Rep Power: 7 |  Print screen isn't working correctly I press print screen and when I try to paste it into a program, it doesn't work. Can't figure out why. Windows XP SP2 Dual monitors It just stopped working one day. I'll try to think back to what I installed recently meanwhile...

Reputation: 152 Rep Power: 7 | I just looked up all of the programs that are running right now according to task manager and I doubt any of them are responsible. WTF?!?!

Reputation: 152 Rep Power: 7 | Well, it's Print-Screening, but won't paste. Wait, this is weird. I opened MSPaint to see the error it was giving me, realized I had text on my clipboard, hit Print Screen and it worked! Print-Screened some other things, kept working! However, as soon as I close Paint, it stops working!  And now even with MSPaint open, it's not working!  The error Paint is giving me is: "Error getting the Clipboard Data!" -> OK "There is not enough memory or resources to complete operation. Close some programs, and then try again." -> OK WTF, I have a gig of RAM and it's not all being used. Perhaps the file where the clipboard contents is corrupted...

Reputation: 152 Rep Power: 7 | Just rebooted and it's been working find so far. I've rebooted before and it's stopped working, so I'd imagine it's just a matter of time until it stops working again.
