How to use FRAPS

An old Fraps tutorial made for testing desktop capture.

I used a fake voice in the video.

Fraps has a free endless trial version that records for 30 seconds at a time and has a small watermark at the top. If you want to record for as much time as you hard drive space allows and without a watermark, buy it for $37 from the Fraps website.

If you have any issues, check the website's FAQ or contact their awesome support.

You will need lots of hard drive space to record with Fraps, a 250 GB laptop drive with over 80% space used won't do it. Buy an external drive if that's a problem.

If your game lags while recording with Fraps, try recording in Half Size, lowering the game's graphics settings, or updating your drivers. If it still lags, you may want to consider upgrading your computer.

The Fraps version in the video is severely outdated, and as a result, so is this video.
