Our building just had a weird little power surge happen and we lost power for like 2 seconds - tops! I think that was enough to fry my pc!! :eek: :eek:
It will NOT turn back on. The monitor is working and I have tried to plug the tower in 3 different outlets all with the same result - DEAD!!! :( :bigcry: This computer is maybe 3-4 months old. Called the tech guy just to make sure and he wasn't available. :(
I am in the realtor's office (HAHA) b/c I can't stand being w/o internet. Someone call my sponsor. :D
and I was in the middle of IM session with LHPM - no, Deb I'm not ignoring you. :p :p

say hi to Teri for me. she hasnt come by the house since we bought it to see how we fixed it up inside :(
by the way, every computer should be hooked up to a surge protector and a battery backup. shame on you.

I get back to work and my computer is on!!!!! HORRAY!
Is that normal? For it to take so long to "adjust" itself after a power outage? I've never had a computer take that long to turn back on.
AND....
before ya'll ask - yes, I did push the button to turn it back on!
