Solution
More than likely, the damage would be to the power supply, but if that fails, it has the ability to kill any other component of your computer.

If you experience power outages around 3-4 times a day then I can grantee some system malfunction is waiting to happen . With newer hardware there are some small preventatives but 3-4 times a day is not a quantity this hardware was designed to protect. I busted my old hard drive from a power cut. Just a quick question though, are you talking about power outages or are you referencing your PC sleeping and shutting off? Because if the system is sleeping and shutting off then that is completely normal.
