Well if you played your cards right you should be able to build a much nicer computer =)

[poofph]

depending on their deductible, may end up with a check for 43 dollars. :)

That's why you tell them it was a 8k alienware rig =p

When I talked to the insurance claim person the other day on the phone. They told me to make a list of the parts that where in the computer and all that well I did and the prices are...

4384.56 for the desktop

About 1750.00 for the laptop.

I got a $250.00 deductible

If the power company was at fault it's often possible to get them to reimburse.

I suggest trolling newegg's refurb deals.

Had a pal pick up a beast 2k rig for 600$.

That sucks man. See you when you get back!

Some surge protectors come with a warranty that protects any equipment connected to them. In fact I recommend finding one when you get your new machines. You can find them at any place like Staples, and they're not too expensive, less than $100.

huehue...Staples. Can't speak for the US but they've got really overpriced for everything here.

Its a subrogation process and it takes a while specially when the at fault party is a utility company . Much better to take matters into your own hands then try and get your money back later.

Sigh.... Talked to the home owners insurance company on Friday about this, they said they where rushing the papers out. Was holding to have the papers I needed in the mail today..... No paper :( I got All my paper work done and ready to be sent back to them. To get this going as fast as possible I am tweaking do to not being able to play

If your computers turned on, and if they didnt take em try to run a chkdsk. Had the same thing happen to me and I ended up just needing to use that command.
