Screen capture as video?

[David_UK]

I can use photo deitor software to capture an area of the monitor display as a graphics file. I'd like to be able to capture an area of the screen as video so I can demonstrate tasks in a presentation.
Can anyone advise a FREE application that can do this? I suppose image quality is not crucial. Thanks guys.

There is a freeware program called Camstudio that does what you want. But i cant find any mirros for it. It seems its been stopped, but somewhere should have it, if you be persistant

hypersnap and snap it have excellent video capture for anything on screen, fraps is good if your working in 3d
