You can use the "Print Screen" button on your keyboard, or download a programme called SnagIt.
I use the latter.

Just hit print screen then go open paint and paste it into paint and save it

It's on the SysReq key.
BTW pressing PrtScr alone will capture the entire desktop. Use Alt-PrtScr to capture the current window.

...if it was a mac --->
shift + Apple + 4 to take a pic of a portion of the screen
shift + Apple + 3 to take an entire screen shot

I was actually the complete [i1ed7012352]opposite[/i1ed7012352]. I didn't know that you could use just Prt Scr to capture the entire screen until I read it somewhere )

Pressing the Prnt Scrn button is the same as copying your desktop. What do you do when you copy something? You paste it somewhere else. So open paint, or whatever image program you use, and hold control and press "V" or right click and paste.
