What is the stupidest computer question you've ever been asked?

Mine is: How come there are two power buttons on the computer?

(Note that these were not power buttons but rather the eject buttons for my CD drive and my DVD drive, asked by my girlfriend at the time.)


Oh...we're not together anymore so it's funny to talk about now ^_^
 
the first computer I ever got I always thought everything on it was a game, so I kept asking, "how do I play this one?"
 
My favourites include the time when my sister rebooted my pc when trying to eject the DVD drive and the time I was asked what a cursor is!
 
You can thank the n00bs for that ^^

We should get more people to post their BEST computer n00b questions that they've seen/been asked.
 
Agreed. I had a new one today from a co-worker while I've been on the forums in training. Her question was..

"Why are you buying a video card when you need a screen?"
 
One from the old past that is always a fun topic around family get-togethers is when my sister exclaimed how happy she was to get a $100 CD.. except my grandparents had got her a Certificate of Deposit..and she thought she was getting some super-cool Compact Disc...

My sister fails hardcore daily. :D

lmao, that is awesome :P
 
My wife said to me "The router is meant to be wireless so why are you plugging in the internet cable"
I couldnt think of anything sarcastic so I just said it was to save on the airwaves.
 
My brother asked me

"Which was the computer the box or the screen"

This is the best one

A guy called me at my shop and said that his friend said he had a Virus so he asked me

"What kind of medicine do I get and where do I get it from"

lol

Now that's funny
 
This one comes up often on forums and when users call me up for help:

I re-installed Windows but I can't find Office anymore
Constantly, I have to say that Windows doesn't come with Office :rolleyes:
Really this happens often, especially when users buy new computers
 
Lady: Hi my computer is not working!

Store: What's wrong with it?

Lady: My memory is failing me

Store: Well we can get you new RAM and that should help you

Lady: Whats RAM? I think my husband said that the Hard Drive is dead or something like that

Store: Oh okay, we can get you setup with a new Hard Drive, no problem

Lady: Well, I'm not sure if that's the right thing, like I said, my memory is failing me

Store: Is your husband there Maam?
