Many of us are fond of playing video games on computer and love to share scores with friends by taking screenshots or sometimes we send those beautiful images of video games via email to friends whenever we play a newly launched game just to show them how the game looks like. Most of us rely on taking screenshots by pressing PrintScreen button. But using this conventional method, the screenshot looks hazy and looses the real touch. How can I take screenshot of video games in Full-screen mode?
In my previous post I discussed about How to take Screenshots of Games or Movies? using Fraps. Well, this is far better option than to take screenshot using PrintScreen button, but Fraps imposes watermarks on screenshot. That’s ugly!!!

If you run these games in Dx10 mode you won’t be able to take any screenshot, even if you press ‘Print Screen’ button and paste in MS Paint it will be pasted as a black picture. If you are a serious gamer, and want to capture your finest moments on video as screenshot then fraps is the right solution for you.
