Clearly you’ve never called the IT department at work. First thing they say is: “Did you reboot it?” So when You said you tried everything I assumed you did that.
“While you have a computer genius on the line, would you mind telling him/her that my daughter sat on the TV remote and now our blackweb sound-bar won't work anymore (it has its own separate remote).
We've tried everything. What's the fix?”
You said right here.
My daughter outfitted her entire apartment sans the bedding from garage sales. She even got a bed frame for $20.
Now if your just buying more crap to bring home to keep with your crap that’s a different story.
