Windows print screen with Mac Keyboard

Can anyone out there tell me how to do a screen capture in Windows with a Mac keyboard plugged in? I have my Mac keyboard and mighty mouse plugged into a KVM switch that controls both my MacbookPro and my WinXP desktop. I'm having a terrible time trying to do certain things that require those extra keys like insert and print screen. Even the num-pad doesn't work! Any ideas, tips, tools, drivers?


You could use the On-Screen Keyboard.

Start > All Programs > Accessories > Accessibility > On-Screen Keyboard

If you're trying to take a screenshot, you can do it programmatically. Take a look at this article: Programmatically Take Screenshot Using C#. Hope these ideas help.


I've got a brand new Apple extended keyboard connected to a DELL laptop running Windows 7 64-bit. This is what works for me:

F14 copies the entire screen to the clipboard.

Alt+F14 copies the active window to the clipboard.
