I created a program for a school project. I need to take a screenshot of my program but its in full screen console mode.. it seems like windows cant take screen shot when your running on fullscreen console mode. Does any1 know a solution on how i could take a screenshot of my app? Also i tried restoring the Dos window but it wont maybe becoz of the graphics i used( probably some graphic functions wont let me restore the window ), not sure. Need help, thnks.
Google...

It didnt work.. i took a screenshot and it was all black.. the text and graphics were all gone
Weird maybe a bug, try a search for "Dos" + "Full screen" + "screen capture"
If all else fails, draw the "screenshot" and enter it into your project with the line "this is what my screenshot would look like, but I'm a Windows user"

Nothing worked. I downloaded 5 screen capture program nothing worked. They all generated all black images except for SnagIt which generated all white.
Well thats a bummer.

It's dificult to take screen shots of full screen DOS. You tried pressing ALT-ENTER and then ALT-Printscreen?

Yeah i tried, ALT-ENTER just minimized the dos window so Alt-PrnScrn didnt work.
Did you try fraps ?
[edit]
Its a screen capture program specifically for full-screen games

fraps didnt work.
My instructor tried taking screenshot on windows 2000 it worked with Alt-Enter - Alt PrintScreen.
I guess i would have to finish my project in school since im on XP.
