Wow, that guy knows absolutely nothing about computers. It's pretty funny how those people are telling him to press CTRL ALT DELETE "really fast" to solve the problem.

It's funny that he didn't realize that ctrl+alt+del restarts your computer after he used it 2 times...

You should have told hime to cover his computer in silver foil, cos that would solve the problem real fast.

I work tech support for my cable ISP and the text is nothing compared to some of the geniuses I speak with on a day to day basis.
One guy (a Mac user) called in saying he couldn't get his wireless airport hub to work. I tried looking him up by the caller id and couldn't find anything. The guy then said he was at the local airport with his iMac, cable modem, and airport hub and he was wondering why it wouldn't work. All I could do while he was babbling was just sit there with a stunned look on my face.

I know a guy in tech support. He's had some really stupid questions. Dumbest he's ever got is a person complained that her comp didn't work. He asked if it's turned on, and she said no.

Actual dialogue of a former Word Perfect Customer Support employee:
tech: Ridge hall computer assistance; may I help you?
caller: Yes, well, I'm having trouble with Word Perfect.
tech: What sort of trouble?
caller: Well, I was just typing along, and all of a sudden the words went away.
tech: Went away?
caller: They disappeared.
tech: Hmm. So what does your screen look like now?
caller: Nothing.
tech: Nothing?
caller: It's blank; it wont accept anything when I type
tech: Are you still in Word Perfect, or did you get out?
caller: How do I tell?
tech: Can you see the C: prompt on the screen?
caller: What's a see-prompt?
tech: Never mind, can you move your cursor around the screen?
caller: There isnt any cursor: I told you, it won't accept anything I type.
tech: Does your monitor have a power indicator
caller: What's a monitor?
tech: Its the thing with the screen on it that looks like a TV. Does it have a little light that tells you that its on?
caller: I don't know.
tech: Well, then look on the back of the monitor and find where the power cord goes into it. Can you see that?
caller: Yes, I think so.
tech: Great. Follow the cord to the plug, and tell me if its plugged into the wall.
caller: Yes, it is.
tech: When you where behind the monitor, did you notice that there were two cables plugged into the back of it, not just one?
caller: No.
tech: Well, there are. I need you to look back there again and find the other cable.
caller: Okay here it is.
tech: Follow it for me, and tell me if its plugged securely into the back of your computer.
caller: I cant reach.
tech: Uh huh. Well, can you see if it is?
caller: No.
tech: Even if you maybe put your knee on something and lean way over?
caller: Oh, it's not because I don't have the right angle, it's because it's dark.
tech: Dark? Yes, the office light is off, and the only light I have is coming in from the window.
tech: Well, turn on the office light then.
caller: I can't.
tech: No? Why not? Because there's a power failure.
tech: A power... a power failure? Aha, okay, we've got it licked now. Do you still have the boxes and manuals and packaging stuff your computer came in? Well, yes, I keep them in the closet.
tech: Good. Go get them, and unplug your system and pack it up just like it was when you got it. Then take it back to the store where you bought it from. Really? Is it that bad?
tech: Yes Im afraid it is Well, all right then, I suppose. What do I tell them?
tech: Tell them that your too ****ing stupid to own a computer."
it's rather long, but still very funny.
