What am I, a forensic analyst?

This guy just left - for better part of an hour, he kept trying to get me to tell him what was wrong with his computer before he reinstalled Windows! And every time I repeated that no, I don't know what was wrong with PC that I've never seen before, and which arrived to me freshly reformatted and reinstalled, he'd try to approach it from another angle. All the while, I have three more machines in the queue, and it's already 7PM... grrr.

Yeah, but the problem is, in this case the evidence already has been destroyed, and it is possible (not 100% chance, but possible) to reconstruct what went wrong, it'd take some very expensive data recovery tools, and a lot of time - time spent by people who are paid a lot more than I am.
