print screen

[wvd]

using Windows XP Home Edition - print screen key does
not copy monitor screen. Dell not able to give solution
and Micosoft tech won't take message since OEM supplied
operating system with new computer. Any suggestions as to
possible problem? NVRAM has been cleared. On old windows
95 the "Print Screen" would copy to printer the entire
monitor screen. Have swapped key board and still
problem.

How about pasting into Paint then trying to print it? An extra step
involved, but it works.
