I run a Fortron Continuous Power Filter & Spike arrestor, cost big bucks but gives me some peace of mind, possibly a wise investment for you.
Trust me i will be looking into that ..arrestor!...It was real windy/only a small westcoast storm and the substation (PG&E said had distribution problems)The Station was over spiking tripping nieghborhoods left and right from what the firechief nextdoor said when a tv caught fire!..Id like to go balistic but it wont help me in any way but ....to replace my stuff and life goes on...so Im card hunting for cheopo GTS and when Pg7e kicks back or Home Owners.. Ill grab a nice vud and maybe a BE Phenom if it comes out soon....i INSTALLED I HIGH IMPACT gif ON THIS pC AND IT WORKED.....I had forgot i changed the wALL OUTLET COULDNT FIGURE OUT WHY THIS ONE DIDNT GET SCREWED UP LOL..

We get bad storms here and ive never lost any device in 18years of overclocking in storms or let alone windy weather this is a first for me....
