All of a sudden I have a strange problem. I am unable to paste into adobe photoshop once I press the print screen button. I am however able to print into the likes of paint or other applications, but it seems to tbe photoshop that is affected.

If I copy a image from a website or so and paste in photoshop it works.

I would guess that it may be something to do with the internal clipboard of the application, but has anyone any ideas. I still use Photoshop 7 for what it is worth on XP.

Try clearing your clipboard. Not sure how to do it in 7, but in 6, it's Edit>Purge>then make a choice. Might just want to click on "All" and try that. After you clear (purge) your clipboard, shut down PS, then restart your computer. This should ensure that the temp file (temp scratch disc?) that PS creates is deleted and it'll make a new one the next time you start it.

Hope this helps!

it's edit | purge all the way up to CS2.
And I think stevealmighty's advice is sound
