Yes, I have no idea how to take screenshots of programs like EVGA Precision, CPU Z and others. Help a poor man out.

Printscreen? Then paste it in IrfanView and Save as .png/jpg?

Thanks Bud I'll give that a try.

Edit: "Printscreen" How do I do that? Currently have Precision, Fahmon and Hardware Monitor on my desktop. Can't figure out how to "save" it. If I right click I don't see anything that would help me.

I use the faststone image viewer just because it allows me to select what portion of the screen I want to copy.

Alt+PrintScreen to do just the focused window.

Though the Snipping tool is simply awesome. Does the job perfectly.

Yeah, it's great... you can set it to do windows, so the screen is greyed but the window your mouse is over shows it as being the one to be snipped. It also allows full screen grab, rectangular grab, and freehand grab.

Quite a handy tool.
