Power Outage and HTPC

I did manage to loose power for about four hours on Monday night. I know because I was about to turn off the lights at 10 and the lights went out followed by my UPS on the Mac Mini beeping. I turned off the UPS and went to bed and was awoken by the lights coming on in the bedroom. Even though the HTPC was not on a UPS, it did survive the surge coming back on. I did have to restart the WMC however. I will make that the default that launches upon boot-up. I also need to change the HTPC to HDMI 1 so that the Plasma TV is tuned to it by default. These are little things that you don't necessarily think about until something happens to force your hand.
