    You could try playing in windowed mode. It worked for me with a different game.

    turn off anti aliasing press printscreen several times. look into your tga folder. but make sure you save the game first because its usually CTD. it works for me. I'm window 7 too.

    if you open your RTW directory folder, you'll find a folder named "tgas". when you press screenshot, it goes there.

    Its a folder in the main RTW directory, this is where the game saves your screenshots.
