How can I take a screenshot like this?

alt text

I tried pressing Prnt Scrn, and then trying to paste it in MS Paint after booting to Vista, but it did not work.

Print Screen will never work because a "clipboard" is an OS-level feature (and even higher level - X11 - on Linux). – grawity Sep 11 '10 at 21:47

yes, I thought of that. Actually the OS is already installed (not on a virtual machine), and I needed to post screenshots at this question. – Lazer Sep 11 '10 at 15:42
