Computer Acting Strange

Customer calls and starts to tell me about how strange her computer is acting. Apparently, every time she opened outlook it would scroll infinitely, she couldn’t get any other programs to open, things were typing strange, just really anomalous behavior. She’d had the CEO come and take a look as well as one of our nursing co-workers.

They all agreed it was acting strange and to come get me. So, I take a look over her computer. The problem is instantly apparent once she showed me what was happening. When she hit the windows symbol, for example, spaces would be created over and over.

It turns out, she’d laid a clipboard down on her desk, right on her space key. Once the clipboard was removed, the computer started working fine again.

Gotta love a happy ending.
