Hi Mike!

Yes, there are some utilities to do what you need.  But Windows has a
built-in screen-capture feature.  To create an image of your whole screen,
press the "Print Screen" key on your keyboard.  This will copy the entire
image on your monitor to the clipboard.  Then, open your favorite graphics
program, open a new file, then go to Edit | Paste, and presto!, there's
your image!  Then, you just go File | Save As... and name it, and save it
in whatever format you want (limited by whatever your graphics program
allows). You can restrict what gets copied to the clipboard by pressing
Alt+Print Screen to capture only the active window.  Good luck!
