Clipboard error in MS Paint

Hello I have some tips to share to you all you need to do is just change the image attributes in the paint to match your total screen size. If the one monitor is 1680×1050 and you have a background on there that stretches along both of the screens, the background would have to be 3360×1050. So if you print screen, you need to go to paint, change the attributes to 3360×1050 and then hit the paste. Or try this Auto Hot Key with its following script:

Print screen pastes into MS Paint ~Print screen:: Run Ms Paint Win Wait Active, Untitled – Paint { Send ^v }

I hope this Helps.
