Electrical Failure
I worked at a well-known university. A professor from the electrical engineering department called me and asked if I could take a look at his computer. He said it was dead and wouldn’t work.
I wasn’t an IT person but I thought I’d take a look. So I get there, and the computer was dead and wouldn’t power up. So I checked to see if the cord had gotten kicked out of the wall. The computer was plugged into a power strip and the power strip was plugged into itself.
