What program are you using to view the video?
Some video filters won't allow you to take snapshots.
If it's Windows Media Player, do the following:
Go to Tools. Go to Options. Click the Performance Tab Click on the Advanced Button Uncheck “Use Overlays’ Click OK

I use VLC. I used to be able to do it before I got my new computer

Put some paper on the screen, trace it. It's what the pros do.

This is good for converting videos that won't let you grab an image: www.autogk.me.uk/ It's not the fastest program though.
