cath276 is an unknown quantity at this point
Unhappy NO idea whats happening!

No idea if I am writing this in the right place or even if it's relevant but I have a problem with my cable modem.
I am not a technical person so will put this as simple as I can.....
Cabel tv working fine - turn on pc...cabel modem & pc working fine - sudden 'POP' sound and computer switches off completely and cabel tv goes down too.
At first I thought maybe it was a power surge but it's not tripping the electric. Also when it went pop and turned pc off, it turned cabel tv off BUT NOT not the actual tv (in other words tv was still on but with a blank screen)
I am therefore assuming it's some sort of cable problem but have NO idea of what or how etc.
It's done it twice tonight already. Tv comes back on itself in about 5 seconds but pc has to be turned off at the wall and then on again before it will restart.
Pleeeeeaaasseee help me!
