Screenshot Captor / Re: black screen

« on: September 26, 2014, 04:35 AM »

Hello Mouser,
 Many thanks for your reply to my problem.
I use Avast as my antivirus (free version) As far as I can tell, it doesn't have a section for allowing  'safe' programs.
I can take screen shots just fine on other programs - it's just Myst which is causing the problem - it's Myst, End of Ages - the latest game.(a few years old now)
The only other protection I have is Windows Defender.

I write sci-fi - if you would like a free e-book I will gladly send you one (as attachment - which will open in any word processor), just email me at
[email protected]
If you have any other suggestions, I would be grateful.
Using printscreen, I can only take one shot at a time - and then have to close down the game to access the 'shot'. I need to take multiple shots to string them together in a panorama.
Kind regards, Ravin Dave

Ravin dave again - addition.
When I boot up in the morning I can use printscreen to copy a picture from Myst - and it comes up just fine (in paint prog.).
Once I have started 'screenshot captor' I only get a black picture when I use the prog., and I can't get rid of the little screen symbol in the bottom tray.
It goes away on the next boot up, but I can't get rid of it unless I re-boot.

Hi Folks,
 I am new here, and can't solve this problem:-
I have the game 'MYST End of ages'
When I try to capture a screen (using printscreen with and with out control) all I get is a black square !!
Some how the 'game' seems to detect what I am doing, and will not allow it.
Does anyone know how to over come this please?
