Anyone know of a good screenshot utility that works in Windows 7 RC build 7100? I use ScreenPrint32 in Windows XP but it doesn't work in Windows 7. Cheers.

Click Start - Type in Snip = Windows 7 inbuilt screen capture.

One I use is Ashampoo Magical Snap (http://www.ashampoo.com/frontend/products/php/product.php?session_langid=2&idstring=0224) -- While not free - works perfectly with W7 - LOADS of features as well.

thanks for the heads-up on the Snip tool, it's perfect for what I need to do. For whatever reason, PrtScn doesn't work for me in Windows 7, but Snip is a better tool anyway.

Snipping tool is awesome but for windows XP I use Screenhunter (http://download.cnet.com/ScreenHunter-Free/3000-2192_4-10063246.html), its just like a snipping tool :thumbs: and its also free.

Might want to untick the option to have a red border around all screenshots.... I personally find it quite annoying:

Thanks for this. I've been using mwsnap & it's a pain in the bum, snip's how it should be
