They still ask you why their garbage doesn't work or how to run a PDF.
I'm not even a computer programmer, I do industrial automation!

how to run a PDF

Not that stupid. PDF is scriptable.

Just make it executable using chmod +x and call it like you would just anything you want to "run".
If it "does not work" then you need to change your CPU by getting another motherboard. That will be $3k
