It still works fine in games that are running in Windows 8.

Hello Mike:
Since you are using Windows 8, use the Windows Logo Key + the Print Screen key you should see your screen(s) dim slightly.
and then look in your pictures folder, for a folder called Screenshots and see if you have a file called Screenshot (#).png

You're welcome Mike, glad to have been able to help, although I'm still not sure why you couldn't use the other normal Ctrl, or Alt + PrintScreen Key to copy to clipboard and paste into Paint.
In the mean time we Geezers will stumble along figuring this new fangled Windows 8 out.
