What is it with this QotW?
Most of the stories I've read have made me smile, shake my head in disbelief, or actually laugh out loud.

So why is it that most of the stories I've posted this week have been greeted with "Well why didn't you try this?" or "Maybe the user was thinking that"?

I've already tried all the helpdesky stuff, and ascertained that the user/my colleague/I was being a bit stupid - that's why I've posted the story, not to see if anyone can help me with a bit of a problem I've got on the computerisatificator machine thing... O_o

Well..
did you try turning it off and on again?

Hahaha!
:D

Thanks for that... I've had a bit of a shit day, and a couple of things I read on here really pissed me off earlier - but you've just made me do a real proper snicker, cheers :)

It's
just the techie's unsatiable thirst to solve computer problems; they'll happily solve things that were never problems to begin with, that you never even knew about!

Anywho, a defrag will probably sort it out.
