Can a split-second power outage shut off my PC?

[pc1966]

So if router and laptop was not affected then propably pc issue and not brownout?

Probably.

But the laptop has an internal battery so unlikely to notice it. However, I have had one shut down on momentary power fail as it had not had any keyboard/mouse action, even though it was busy with network traffic / SSH sessions, as the power management was set to power off on battery after X minutes of being idle!

So propably pc related? Because if that was brownout pc should reboot not shutdown? Also when i switch fast off/on button on power cord pc rebooting not shutting down.

When i cut power for 1 second in power cord by button OFF/ON pc rebooting,fine.



Week ago i had shutdown of pc during launching game. And i dont know if that was psu or brownout issue. Pc shutdown,not rebooted.



And my question is. Is any difference to pc between brief brownout and switching fast OFF/ON button in power cord? If that was brownout pc should reboot too?
