		 At one point my speakers would not make any sound at all, so I decided to call tech support.  I had attempted to change the settings, made sure everything was plugged in, ect before I called. 
 
When I called, he asked for my OS, serial numbers from the back, ect.  We chatted for almost an hour and a half, with most of that time being silent while he "checked into things" 
 
I learned that he was Canadian, has 2 children, was recently divorced, works with only 1 other tech support guy, his desk was dark, he recently moved, and his car needed a new head gasket. 
 
For goodness sake, why would I EVER need to know this information about the tech support guy I called.  Finally, after an hour and a half of searching, we realized what a large part of the problem was, and why I was having difficulty doing what he was saying.  He was giving me instructions for Windows ME and I had Windows 98. 
 
At this point, I simply thanked him for his time and hung up....
