The problem: You don’t have a surge protector and now your computer won’t turn on after a storm.
The fix: One good quick fix, if your computer won’t turn on after a storm, is to unplug not only the power cable, but also your keyboard, especially if it’s not a USB-connected keyboard. The keyboard actually holds a small charge, so try unplugging both and hopefully your computer will reboot.
