Hello .
My new computer had a power surge today just as I was installing some updates for windows , I would like to know the possible causes for this surge and ways to fix it .
My computer specification is as follows :
Asus M5A78L-M/USB3 Motherboard
Corsair CMZ8GX3M2A1600C9 8GB 1600MHz
AMD Bulldozer FX-6100
Western Digital Caviar Blue 500GB SATAIII 6Gb/s 16MB Cache 3.5 inch Internal Hard Drive OEM
700 WATT Power supply Alpine Black
When I started my computer up again the screen stated: Your motherboard anti surge protection initiated and shut your computer down .
Also , will it matter that I was installing windows security / general windows updates when the computer shutdown mid-way , can this corrupt my computer in anyway ?
The computer is homebuilt and I only completed it the day before this post .
Thanks for help .
