In Windows, try:

import pyscreenshot
img = pyscreenshot.grab()
img.show()

If there are multiple displays, only the primary one would be captured.

Python 2.7.9
The latest version of pyscreenshot installed from PYPI
And with Different Platforms
Arch Linux x86_64 with two displays: No issue.
Windows 7 (64 bit) with two displays: This issue happens.
Windows XP (32 bit) (inside VirtualBox) with two displays: This issue happens.

..Seems to be an upstream issue of PIL.

pyscreenshot is only a wrapper, first try to test the back-ends.
