Make sure you monitor driver is installed to the manufacturer of the monitor and not reset the "default" monitor. Easy fix would be just reinstall the monitor driver.

The power surge might have pooched your monitor or system. I would uninstall the graphics driver and reinstall it--letting the system reset the video processor and monitor.
I never connect any of my systems directly to the AC line. All are connected via a UPS that prevents surge damage.

i would use the go back feature to go far enough back in time to recoup your setting.
