"Ridge Hall computer assistant; may I help you?"

"Yes, well, I'm having trouble with eh my WordPerfect."

"What sort of trouble?"

"Well, I was just typing along, and all of a sudden the words went away."

"Went away?"

"They disappeared."

"Hmm. So what does your screen look like now?"

"Nothing dey show ."

"Nothing?"

"It's blank; it won't accept anything when I type."

"Are you still in WordPerfect, or did you get out?"

"How i go tell?"

"Can you see the C: prompt on the screen?"

"What's a sea-prompt?"

"Never mind. Can you move the cursor around on the screen?"

"There isn't any curse, I told you, it won't accept anything I type."

"Does your monitor have a power indicator?"

"What is a monitor?"

"It's the thing with the screen on it that looks like a TV. Does it have a little light that tells you when it's on?"

"I don't know."

"Well, then look at the back of the monitor and find where the power cord goes into it. Can you see that?"

"Yes, I think so."

"Great. Follow the cord to the plug, and tell me if it's plugged into the wall."

".......Yes, it is."

"When you were behind the monitor, did you notice that there were two cables plugged into the back of it, not just one?"

"No."

"Well, there are. I need you to look back there again and find the other cable."

".......Okay, here it is."

"Follow it for me, and tell me if it's plugged securely into the back of your computer."

"I can't reach."

"Uh huh. Well, can you see if it is?"

"No."

"Even if you put your knee on something and lean way over?"

"Oh, it's not because I don't have the right angle - it's because it's Dark."

"Dark?"

"Yes - NEPA don carry light for the office, and the only light I have is coming in from the lantern."

"Well, turn on the office light then."

"I can't."

"No? Why not?"

"Because NEPA, like i said, abi you no hear."

"HMM NEPA... What is N... .? Ah, Okay, this what we'll do, now. Do you still have the boxes and manuals and packing stuff your computer came in?"

"Well, yes, I keep for closest, i no dey touch am."

"Good. listen carefully okay, Go get them, and unplug your system and pack it up just like it was when you got it. Then take it back to the store you bought it from."

"Why now? Is it that bad?"

"Yes, I'm afraid it is."

"Well, all right then. What do I tell them?"

"Tell them you're too stupid to own a computer."

check your version of DirectX - I believe there is a problem with messenger and DX8 - re-download DX8a and it might help?
