Been playing a few weeks now and noticed my screenshots save on my Window's 98 system but overwrite each other on my Vista system. Any suggestions for the Vista Operating System...I really like taking screen shot pics.

Since I am running Vista too, I tried this at home and got the same results. I have a friend who also plays wow that is a pc guru, I emailed him and I am hoping he has a suggestion.

I'll followup if I learn anything this week.

you can always try just hitting the PrtScn button, alt-tab outta WoW, and then opening MS-Paint and paste (CTRL+V) it there and save the pic.

Will have to do that for each screenshot tho i think.

Ok, I did some searching in the Official WoW Forums, and found this little gem. Dunno if it will help any, but hey, what the heck.

Copy and paste the line below into the Start Menu:

C:\Users\%username%\AppData\Local\VirtualStore\Pro gram Files\

Look for a World of Warcraft folder. See if your screenshots are there.
