CamStudio is a screen capture program, freeware, and most importantly, works great. Capturing directly from your desktop or whatever program you are using, the only thing I have found that crashes it is using it extensively in video games such as Halo for Pc, where it slows down the system. Other than that, simplistic screen capture that works.
