Should I turn off my computer when there is lightning?

So, should you turn off your computer during a lightning storm? Yes, and you should also unplug it. In fact, if you really want to play it safe, you should unplug everything during a lightning storm just in case you experience a severe power surge in your home.

What happens when lightning strikes a computer?

A lightning strike can cause terrible damage to electrical devices. The damage doesn't have to be smoking components either; a lightning strike can fry hardware without any visible signs of failure. Replacing an entire computer can cost businesses thousands of dollars when only a few components may need to be replaced.

How do you troubleshoot a computer that won't start after a lightning storm?

The problem can be with the socket, the power brick or the power cable. Plug a light into the socket to make sure there is power. If there is, plug the computer directly into the socket to bypass the power bar. If it works, replace the power bar; if not, replace the power cord.

Is it safe to be on a computer during a thunderstorm?

Since a power surge from lightning can totally fry your PC and other electronics, if there's a major lightning storm nearby, your best bet is to simply shut down and unplug your PC and other electronics. Anything plugged in to a wall has the chance of getting zapped.
