Computers and Power Surges.....

Don't let anyone ever tell you that a power surge will not SAP your hard drive... I had a power surge protector but it must not have been strong enough. I had to have everything inside my computer rebuilt. "OUCH" But anyway I am back up and running. It feels good!!!!!

after writing and a comment and four refreshing the page, I finally got your post. Wanted to let you know. Those surge protectors are not always what they are cracked up to be. I have two, one strip and one under the monitor one and my outlet is grounded, BUT I still shut it down during a storm and always overnight. Glad you are back up and running clara. I have sure have missed you!
God Bless!

I have my computers on surge protectors, but still unplug them if we are going to be gone, or if I am here and there is a storm. My brother, who is a computer geek, said some of them are only good for one power surge.
