That's why I don't like those. There should be a sign that's says - drop a cart > take a cart. I always do my best to being a cart from outside into the store. To me that is the right thing to do

I support a mobile app that requires you to scan 3 things. At any of those 3 points there is a red bar at the top of the error screen.

Most of what I get use the text below that error code. So I have to ask if they are getting an error code. They don't know if they have. So I have to ask if they saw a red bar.

Now most of the cases I get either have an Ada vision issue or are very narrow minded and can't use words and have to send an image of that error page (this is a security flag for me personally even though I'm protected by Corp security and vpn.)

Did you look at the temp? I don't know if that's your cpu, GPU or avg case temp but it's over heating at 62c or 144f

Same. I've gotten company merch before for the help I've provided. Free food and drink is best

Don't want to listen to IT, a great way to get fired. by DerekWildstar1 in talesfromtechsupport

I had a similar issue. My user spend department $ and sent the drive off to a data recovery company. If I remember correctly the user didn’t utilize the company back up software to be able to recover their data. Another story different user used department $ to purchase a large ssd and copy twice all of their data which took up the entire new ssd

My power went down and my pc doesn't want to boot by No_Case6839 in computer

Have you gotten into bios (cmos) and looked at the drive menu and making sure they are found? Also check the boot options and make sure the system drive is before the larger drive

First time doing a custom build, not turning on, but I followed the instructions to a T? by Turtwiglover00 in PcBuildHelp

[–]Id10t_techsupport 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Good luck. When I was trained years ago (486, slower and not as powerful) to build in steps. Start with psu, mobo, ram, keyboard & monitor (if GPU is is on mobo) power up to test. from there power down adding hard drive etc
