Tom, great catch on that typo! Old age dyslexia strikes again!
Sorry to hear about all of your problems. Do you have an electrical problem that took out all of your equipment? You might want to consider an Uninterrupted Power Supply if you don't already have one. I have one that is large enough to cover my two computers, all the peripherals and all of my music hardware and it only costs $100. A small price to pay for electrical protection.
PS - brown outs can cause more damage than spikes and a UPS eliminates that potential problem as well as spikes.
Well....some years back,my building has experienced somewhat routine interruptions(due to a faulty electrical box outside the bldg....so perhaps.this may have contributed to my issues,as it were.)Actually though,my one computer that crapped out...well...I had bought it from Fingerhut and I strongly suspect that the source of their product supply,is refurbished electronics.It was a Gateway PC(an Acer product) and as I had found out,Acer is notorious for manufacturing defective crap.In fact...not long after I bought it,the computer would routinely crash and re-boot itself whenever I powered up,but once it rebooted,it would run fine.
My other older PC,a HP Pavillion,is still functional....but it will not boot up,until I unplug it and then once I plug it back in,it will boot up{I figure it's only a matter of time,before it kicks the bucket.Both of those PC's are several years old,so it was time for me to upgrade anyway.
For my main set up,I bought a HP Pavillion Gaming PC(Ryzen 5,1 TB HD,128GB SSD,3.6 Ghz)...for only $599! I don't do any gaming on it,but wanted the video card upgrade for video editing.
