If you dont want to use fraps (the best tool in my view) you can always use the little known about windows snipping tool,
its in windows 7,8 & 10

Well they don't save there for me.

This from the internet. Says for XP but still works the same for me in Windows 10.

How do you retrieve a print screen?
Method 1 Use Print Screen in Windows XP
Take a full-screen screenshot. Press the Prnt Scrn button on your keyboard to take a screenshot. ...
Take a screen shot of a single window. ...
Open Microsoft Paint. ...
Paste the image into Paint. ...
Save the image.

See http://windowsreport.com/where-do-my-sc ... indows-10/, Method 2.
I have a shortcut on my desktop to this location, so can get there quickly, and transfer the contents to the folders of my choice. I use Paint.net to process them

Press the camera button on the HUD or control - s if you want to use two fingers.

See http://windowsreport.com/where-do-my-sc ... indows-10/, Method 2.

which says:

Print Screen shortcut was available in previous versions of Windows, but with Windows 8 Microsoft introduced a new shortcut. In Windows 8 we got Windows Key + PrtScn shortcut, and this shortcut made its way to Windows 10.

Somewhat at odds with

If you use (Window key)+PrtScrn, it saves them to C:\Users\(your name)\Pictures\Screenshots...........This has worked on my laptop and PC, using Win7.........

OK, Trev's using 10, but if we go back to the whole point of this thread

I am still using Windows 7.

Let's not confuse more than we already have done.

I will just try it to see what happens. Nothing, so I am doing something wrong, I will try again later using a different method. I want to post one on to the forum, nothing in particular.

Pete, some of the suggestions here seem to make the process very complicated. In my experience it's not.

Here's what I do:

Press Ctrl + S to take an in game screenshot.

To view them make sure that you have disabled steam family view then within steam go to View>Screenshots.

If this isn't working then contact Steam support, as your installation must be seriously messed up.
