jw. you are copying it in to paint or somthing once youve got the screen shot. to show it?

If not could be a dodgy key on your keyboard. athogh i wount of thogh the keyboard being wirless would have affectrd it :/

Well if you are just pressing prnt scrn, nothing happens "That you see" it copys the screen onto your clipboard, after you've pressed it, go into paint, and paste. If it doesn't show up, then your keyboard might be broken, If your on a laptop sometimes the keys get muddled + same at school.
Like the @ key is mixed with the " key, so when you press @ it shows " , so that might be happening, however you wont be able to find out, because nothing shows up when you press the prnt scrn button.

Hope this has helped
