it`s snowing really hard outside and i`m busy finishing a certain quest on guildwars. since i won`t be able to go out because of the freakin` snow storm, thought playing would be my last resort to amuse myself.. anyways.., i spend like 2 hrs. umm...wait i think it`s 4 hours...or more like 6 hours playing pc and then suddenly out of nowhere i heard a loud noise and then "waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa" my pc went blank and smoke started to come out it.. i was like "what the hell.?" turns out a tree branch fell on one of the electric post near our house and caused some major damage!!! so i stood up went outside, and so did my neighbor and even the guy who owns the meat shop from across our street..^^ hahahaha!!! i seriously freaked out when i saw him coming out of his shop with a bloody apron and huge butcher`s knife on the other hand... i thought "holy crap... this is turning into like dead rising in real life!!!!" ^^ (or maybe something like resident evil)
well, anyways.. the black out lasted until the next day.... and turns out my pc was completely wasted..and the tech guy said i needed to buy a new one coz` they can`t save my pc anymore..T_T i went home heart broken coz` i can`t heal my pc or resurrect it..hahahahahaha!!!! if only i have the power..^^ moral of the story...ummm......never play when it snows..^^ hahahahha!!!..^^

You didn't have a stabilizer or something between your pc and your power line? Most of these things can handle power surges without burning your pc. Good power supplies also protect the rest of your equipment.
