A powerful lightening struck my cable TV line,
the charge inturn blew a few chips off my PC rendering the PC useless.
Below are the after effects
Processor:
AMD Athlon Processor with the Cooler & Fan Removed, see the Silcon wafer exposed
MotherBoard:
ICs from the Motherboard
The Culprit:
The cable was plugged into the TV Tuner card. which blew up the Tuner Card and the circuity around it.....
How do you prevent it?
#1 Just un-plug TV Cables / Modem connectors to PC when not in use.
#2 Avoid browsing/viewing Cable during heavy downpour
