Nerm Posted February 25, 2005 Posted February 25, 2005 This lady brings in her computer saying it just keeps shutting off on her for no reason right out of the blue. So I take the computer back and put it on the bench turn it on and let it run for a little bit to see if I can duplicate the problem. Well, sure enough after about 5 minutes the screen goes black. I then move the mouse to bring the computer back out of standby, turn standby off, shut computer down, and charged the lady $30 for stupidity lol. IDIOTS!!!!

kewlboxer2 Posted February 25, 2005 Posted February 25, 2005 lol, well the common person would not know about standby. For them it would seem like it just turned off, but o well. As long as there is technology, there is room to make some cash!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nerm Posted February 25, 2005 Posted February 25, 2005 yea but I would think they would at least have the common sense to try moving the mouse around in circles which would bring it out of standby. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kamikaze_Badger Posted February 25, 2005 Posted February 25, 2005 True, but it uses it's own line to connect to the ISP, afaik. Perhaps he had ISDN ? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
