View Full Version : Print screen and full screen in Direct3D

I have an application which has a full screen device on the secondary adapter.
When I press print screen, sometimes I get a green screen where the secondary device should be and sometimes I get the correct image.
I was told maybe I am doing something with hardware overlay, but I didn't even know about it before I encountered the problem.
So what may be causing it and should I be worried about that?
Should I use a window covering the entire screen instead of full screen mode in Direct3D?
Thank you.

What graphics card(s), driver(s) and operating system are you using? Multiple adapters quite often suffer from driver issues. Try newer and older versions to see whether the behavior changes.
