Abstract
Activating a screen capture tool in a display adapter to capture information on a display. An operating system sends a command to the display adapter to initiate the capture of information from the graphical user interface of a display. The display adapter captures the information on the graphical user interface of the display. The information may be stored by the display adapter to a storage device that may be connected to the display adapter. The display is monitored for additional changes. Any changes that occur to the information on areas of the display may be captured and stored to the storage device. The operating system may enable the display adapter to retrieve the information stored in the storage device and/or play back the information retrieved to the display.
