The tiny, infinitesimal chance that you may run into some kind of problem with your computer always exists. The problem can be something major (such as losing the funniest interoffice memo you have seen in years) or minor (perhaps accidentally deleting the analysis you have spent two months creating).Some computer problems you can fix — some you can’t. The situation is similar to cars: You can pump gas yourself and maybe change the oil, but when it’s time to rebuild the engine, call for help. (We do, anyway.) This chapter describes some problems you may run into, with suggestions for what to do.
