Hi all...I'm currently doing an engineering project using a software called aaSidra. The problem is, the software's output is in full DOS mode and I can't capture screens from it. PrtScrn key doesn't work at all, I can't paste it into paint or anything. Can anyone help me? Thanx in advance!

yes, windows XP. and the aasidra software is not on my PC at home, it's in the computer library at the faculty. if possible, i don't want to use the camera method, lol. today I tried using several programs like Screenhunter and Screenshotcaptor to take SS from aasidra, but still cannot. all that comes up is a totally black image. tried minimizing the DOS windows also (alt+enter), but still cannot. hmm...
