Suggestions on a good screen capture program??

[bjassin]

I believe the title says it all....basically, I have this CD that contains medical images and diagrams that I would like to be able to import into Powerpoint to make slides. The problem is that the CD program doesn't allow me to select and copy the images nor to export them.....what would be the easiest program to use to capture these images into JPEG files??

Thanks,

BJ

Personally, I like paint shop pro's screencap utility. You can also do some editing of the images after pasting the screencaps in and before saving them as jpgs.

you could always just use the print screen button and paste into photoshop

I agree w/ Valhalla1, it's the easiest. And, I'll bet that 99 out of 100 users don't know how to use Print Scrn! Just a refresher: hit the Print Scrn button (nothing happens, don't sweat it!), go to your favorite graphic program or(start->programs->accessories->paint). Then on the toolbar (edit->paste).
