There was at least one thread lately about documenting the environment. I've just found that Windows Media Encoder (free download) is superb for this.
http://www.microsoft.com/windows/windowsmedia/9series/encoder/default.as px It gives you the option on startup to capture video from the screen. I've been using it to capture a terminal services window where I go through various configuration settings. This all gets saved to a .wmv file so I've been getting good size results - typically about a couple megs per server. There's even an option for capturing audio, so I plan on hooking up a microphone and maybe adding a few voice notes to certain parts. Clicking through screens is so much faster than typing up descriptions of where each option is. If you can't tell, I'm fairly excited about the whole idea since documenting has been such a chore around here. Anyway, enjoy.
