How to take screenshots?


Yesterday I received a mail by a school kid to teach him how to take screen shots (like the ones we have in the blog). He explained me that he needed some screen shots for his school project. So I decided to write down a tutorial to help kids like him. To start with we can take screen shots by 2 ways. First is by using Software like Fraps and second is by using ‘Print Scr’ key in your keyboard. The following tutorial is by using ‘Print Scr’ key. Ok the key is present on the top right side of the keyboard and has ‘Print Sc’ or ‘Prt Sc’ or something similar written. My Compaq laptop has ‘Prt Sc’. After you find it we can start with the process.

Remote Desktop Access

Ever heard of Remote Desktops? Commonly reffered to as RDA or RDP or simply RD, Remote Desktops are very popular these days. As the words read, remote desktop is nothing but a computer located at some place other than your home and you can access the system from your personal computer or laptop. Remote means a location away from the system's location. You can do almost everything on a remote desktop that you can do on your home computer like play music, videos, pictures, work on softwares, surf internet, play games and what not. Although most of the RD providers dont provide you with administrative rights, but there are some nice guys who allow you to use administrative rights and install your programs and perform other administrative activities. Most RDs are servers with latest technology configuration. RD sellers provide customers with various options when it comes to bandwidth, hard disk capacity, and again configuration of the server. Most of the time sellers sell 1 server to not more than 10-15 users. Although that number may go up or down depending on the configuration of the server.
