Yes I noticed this in Win7 and Win8... PrintScr button can't capture a game when it's in fullscreen mode and your in the game. (It just takes a snapshot of a black screen)

Put the game into windowed mode and it will be able to capture it on your desktop (press PrintScr and paste it into paint, then save as .png)

Or hold ALT + PrintScr with the window selected to just capture that window...

If you don't want to capture it in windowed mode and fullscreen instead, you'll have to use something like fraps (but I suppose that's what you were talking about no-hook as fraps hooks directx to achieve screen capture within the game)

well if u don't want to use print screen or it's not working there is a program that i use called snipping tool i like it cause i can take a screen shot of what i want and even make notes on the screen shot if i want or need to. but say u have ur game up in window mode and u want to take a screen shot but u don't want any part or ur desktop or parts of ur game to be in the screen shot u can use snipping tool and get the shot of what u want. also say took the screen shot of a chat u can highlight the parts of the chat u want to really point out. this is just another idea u can think about when trying to get screen shots. hopes this helps.

or more simple solution, take the screen shot(with game windowed), go to paint application then press ctrl+V, then crop the image the way you like, and save Smile

that is what snipping tool does without having to go to paint and crop anything with snipping tool u click and drag outlining the image u want once u get the image u want u can add notes or highlight things u want. tell u the truth snipping tool is faster and easier then taking screen shot and putting it in paint.
