Just ask it. It knows people that know.

I'm still learning new things about my computer and technology everyday. But with the help of Google I solve most of my problems. The last problem I had was with my Western Digital 500GB external hard drive. I was hooking it up back at my house because I had let a friend copy some of my songs from it. When I plugged it in nothing happened. I thought the worst it was busted, not only was $120 down the drain I had 80,000 songs on it, and all my computers are backed up to it. So after my panic settled down I went to Google and typed in "Western Digital 500GB external hard drive will not turn on." I was taken to a website that told me I could have a bad power supply or there was a power surge and I'm screwed. So crossing my fingers on the power supply I purchased a new one for $20. It arrived and the moment of truth was upon me. It worked!!!! I'm very excited that I did a little research and didn't just trash it.
It turns out Google solves many problems just ask it.
