- This is WordPerfect customer care room! Can I help you?

- Yes, I have trouble with WordPerfect software. I'm typing, suddenly all the words disappear.

- Disappear? So what does your screen look like now?

- Nothing! Empty! It does not display any words when I type.

- Are you still in the WordPerfect program or are you out?

- How to know it!

- Did you see the C: prompt on the screen?

- Prompt C: What is it?

- Well, skip! Can you move the cursor around the screen?

- No pointers. I didn't tell you what it was, the machine didn't accept any orders.

- Does your monitor have power indicator lights?

- What is the monitor?

- Hm! It is a device with a screen, looks like a television. It has a small light to indicate whether it is in active mode.

- I do not know!

- Then, look behind the monitor and find its power supply cord. Do you see it?

- I see!

- Good! Follow the power cord to the plug. Is it in the socket?

- Yes!

- You notice, after the monitor there are up to 2 cables, not just one!

- Is not! What to do!

- Must have it. He reviewed it.

- Ah, I saw it!

- A cable is an electrical cable already checked. Please follow the remaining cable to see if it is firmly attached to the CPU.

- I can't reach it.

- Then you watch carefully if the plug is okay.

- Don't see anything.

- Try kneeling and bending down to the front!

- Not at the viewing angle. I can't see anything because it's too dark here.

- Dark?

- Right! The office lights were all turned off and the only light source was the outside light shining through the window.

- Then turn on the light!

- Can not!

- Why not?

- Power outage!

- Power-off? Ah, so everything is resolved. Do you also keep foam boxes, guides and things to pack the machine?

- Yes! For what?

- Please unplug the plug, pack the device exactly as you bought it and bring it to the place where you sold it to him.

- Is that bad?

- Yes, I'm afraid.

- Okay, so what will I say to the store?

- Tell them that you're stupid enough to not use your computer.
