   most tech support people know nothing about whatever it is they   
   support. they just read from a script.   
      
   if your problem isn't in the script, they have no idea what to do and   
   will often say 'try reinstalling' or something generic to get you off   
   the phone as quickly as possible so they can move on to the next   
   caller.
