I just set up my vista rig to map and everything runs/compiles fine, but i find print screen doesn't work--it just yields a black square the size of my resolution.

Using f5 to snap bitmaps through Half-life still works but i'd rather not do it that way. (i usually use print screen, alt-tab out of the game, and paste in my editor to check it)

Anyone else have this problem with vista/goldsource? I'm running vista x64 too, but i know not if that makes a difference...

Are you running HL in OpengGL?
Also, see what happens if you tune down hardware acceleration.

you mean in my gfx options? i've heard of doing that to take manual screen captures off video and dvds... would probably work but i just think it's gay i never had to do it before. Maybe i can set up a profile that HL will run with hardware acceleration off?
:unsure:
