I have seen demos of Problem Step Recorder program that comes with Windows 7. It's an amazing little tool. Do we have similar tools for Windows XP? I know there are screen recording tools like CamStudio. But I'm looking for something light-weight.

The Jing Project is a fairly light-weight annotated-screenshot & screen-movie maker. It can save to a local folder, FTP, email, or online via the required free account.

It can also give you HTML code to embed the movie from wherever you upload it, after a bit of setup.

(I think they hope to make money by selling additional space to people who want more than 2GB of storage & monthly downloads from their screencast.com web-storage option a lot.)

Faststone Capture all the way for me.

It allows you to record screen activities and sound into highly compressed video files.

Faststone Capture is shareware ($19.95), try before you buy.

There's an older version available for free (v5.3) but it doesn't feature the screen recorder.

Check out Screenrecorder from Microsoft Technet Magazine.

AFAICT does not do stills like the PSR does – Kev Feb 9 at 19:41

Try Camtasia. If you like the free trial as much as I did, you'll probably buy it.

I've found MWSnap is handy for taking screenshots (each time you hit a key combo you specify, it dumps the screenshot wherever you want. Highly configurable IIRC.) Very lightweight, < 1 MB.

You're asking for recording and not an image screen capture. Right?

To record what's happen on the screen and edit this record I suggest you WINK
