If you need tech support, adopt a 14-year-old.

i'm wanting to know how to capture a screen shot of an entire page, not just cut/paste a picture.

Okay then click and drag your pointer from the upper left to the bottom right or use Ctrl + P and paste.

1. Press the Print screen button on your key board- Should be labeled "PrtSC"

2. Open Paint or similiar program

3. Press "Ctrl" and "V" together

4. Then you can save the screenshot

Google is your friend, just use PrntScrn button!

What I do is have the screen the way you want it. Then press the "Print Screen" key on the key board, next to the scroll lock and pause button.

Then I open "Paint" or some other photo editor and I "paste". This puts your screen shot into a useable place. save it as a JPEG and you have it.

Sounds like you want to capture the parts of the page that are scrolled out of the window too. Doable in multiple steps, but not in a single go as far as I know.

Your browser may have a "Save" function that will save the entire contents of the webpage you are looking at. However, web pages are dynamic things and this usually works with limited success. The format of the saved file is not an image either, it's HTML. So you'd have to load it back up into some fancy software to convert it to an extremely tall image.

I suggest you just do multiple print-screens, scrolling the window each time. Then stitch them together.
