Computer for dummies…..

I was browsing online and came across this post on the blog “Little Cozy Corner….. It is about telephone conversations recorded from various customer support desks around the world…

Below are a few hilarious ones that I simply adore…..

Helpdesk: What kind of computer do you have?
Customer: A white one…

Hi good afternoon, this is Martha, I can’t print. Every time I try it says ‘Can’t find printer’. I’ve even lifted the printer and placed it in front of the monitor, but the computer still says he can’t find it…

_________________________________________________________________________

Customer: I have problems printing in red…
Helpdesk: Do you have a colour printer ?
Customer: No.

Customer: My keyboard is not working anymore.
Helpdesk: Are you sure it’s plugged into the computer ?
Customer: No. I can’t get behind the computer.
Helpdesk: Pick up your keyboard and walk 10 paces back.
Customer: OK
Helpdesk: Did the keyboard come with you ?
Customer: Yes
Helpdesk: That means the keyboard is not plugged in. Is there another keyboard ?
Customer: Yes, there’s another one here. Ah…that one does work !

Helpdesk: Your password is the small letter a as in apple, a capital letter V as in Victor, the number 7.
Customer: Is that 7 in capital letters?

A customer couldn’t get on the internet.
Helpdesk: Are you sure you used the right password ?
Customer: Yes I’m sure. I saw my colleague do it.
Helpdesk: Can you tell me what the password was ?
Customer: Five stars.

Helpdesk: What antivirus program do you use ?
Customer: Netscape.
Helpdesk: That’s not an antivirus program.
Customer: Oh, sorry…Internet Explorer.

Customer: I have a huge problem. A friend has placed a screensaver on my
computer, but every time I move the mouse, it disappears !

_________________________________________________________________________

Helpdesk: Microsoft Tech. Support, may I help you ?
Customer: Good afternoon! I have waited over 4 hours for you. Can you please tell me how long it will take before you can help me ?
Helpdesk: Uhh..? Pardon, I don’t understand your problem ?
Customer: I was working in Word and clicked the help button more than 4 hours ago. Can you tell me when you will finally be helping me ?
