    If at all possible try another xbox's power supply. You probably just blew the fuse.....if that's the case you could fix it for a couple bucks or goto the buy and sell thread in the xbox-scene forums and buy one from there.

    It was in a power strip not a surge protecter.
    My T.V. got fried, a cordless phone, ethernet card and a mp3 player.

    Either way,try getting another power supply or check xbox-scene.com on their tutorials on how to change a fuse. You might be up and running again for only a few bux.
