Answers Note: Red font color or gray highlights indicate text that appears in the Answers copy only.

Introduction

As a help desk technician, it is your job to gather data from the customer to begin the troubleshooting process. As a Level 1 technician, you do not have administrative rights to the customer’s computer. Issues that require administrative rights must be escalated to a Level 2 technician. Use the Customer Information sheet on page 2 or one provided by your Answers to document the customer’s problem in the work order below. Assign a case number of your choice and set the Priority as a P2 (Significant Issue). Describe the problem and recommend a solution.
