thank you for the link to 'hard reset', appreciate it. 

My cube, TV and DS cable   modem   had something go through them when a 
lightening strike came through the ceiling in the next room last week. The tv works 
fine except everyone is quite green, and color adjustments wont fix it; the 
dvd player in it also plays every movie starring green people. (cable/bradband  
 runs to tv and computer at same time)

Whatever happened, it fried the cable modem, a motorola, which the cable 
people took away and seated a new one, but my cube would not stay in ethernet, no 
matter what they did. So, they had to hook up   to my other computer that was 
apparently unaffected .   

Here are my questions: storms come up in an instant or i live on a small lake 
at the base of a mountain.... anyone know about lightning rods attached to 
outside house... i am serious. This is the   second lightning strike near the   
house in three y ears. Last time it   fried a little tv, turning the white 
casing bright yellow. 

Second   question: I had good surge protectors on all equipment. Ought i 
replace them now?

3. Is there   any extra strong kind of surge protector i ought knkow about

thanks
