Roger: Jason, I think the computer's frozen up. Jason: What's it doing? Roger: Well, the mose won't work, and the keyboard won't respond, and it's not making any noises. Jason: That happens from time to time, just turn the machine off, then on again. Roger: What do you mean, "on again"? Jason: Um, Dad? Is the screen black right now, by any chance?
