So a while ago lightning went through my cable line and fried my router, cable modem, and onboard nic. I figured something else could be wrong but i never got around to figuring it out.
Anyways, now the computer is acting really strange. When its on, it works perfectly fine and there doesnt seem to be a problem. However, when i restart, there is a good chance that it wont start back up again. The power seems to work and all the fans and drives start up, but nothing is displayed on the monitor. To fix this problem i have simply avoided it. My computer seems to turn back on after restarting it a bunch of times and sometimes after waiting a bit and then restarting...i have no clue why.
Now its really bothering me so maybe ill get around to testing it...
But does anyone have any idea what it may be before i go buying parts. I probably can borrow a spare gfx card to test if its that, but could i also need a new psu or maybe motherboard?
