Yea, I had it on a good quality surge protector. The hard drive is fine, the internet port was shot so I think it was from the fios to the router (router went too)? Who knows, electricity is a weird thing. Had it looked at and they said internet port is gone and can't be replaced unless the main board is replaced????/ Insurance agreed. Everything works except internet.
