When I'm 64 (bit Windows)
Sep. 23rd, 2008 10:18 pmSo, the continuing saga of my laptop. After dealing with a extremely unhelpful 'Case Manager' a few times I decided to make a sound file of the problem I was hearing. I decided to use The Beatles 'Help' to record it. (Irony, I has it) I send it off to them, fuming, FURIOUS with the tech guy. (Case Mgr: Gee, I don't know if I can make the tech guys listen to it. I just write reports) So I went whining to ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
mewsrissicat.
mewsrissicat is a GENIUS!! SHE FIXED MY COMPUTER!! ( In device manager, go to Network adapters -> Broadcom adapter -> Advanced -> Disable Bands -> Disable 802.11a. 802.11a networks are old and uncommon)
And then, cherry on my sundae, my Case Manager called back.
CM: I got one of our tech guys to listen to your sound file. Very funny, very appropriate. We were having a Beatles comeback over here.
Me: I chose that one on purpose.
CM: Well, I've got one of our BEST techs on it. And this is going to be very time consuming, but I think we can get to the bottom of it.
Me: Actually I got a hold of a friend of mine, who does tech support for Dell, and she managed to fix it. (ok, the Dell thing is stretching it a tad, but I had to twist the knife)
CM: Oh.
Me: I guess my song should have been "I Get By With a Little Help From My Friends."
RISSICAT! YOU ARE AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!
