One thing that I keep hearing from lots of places it that you need a good sine wave to power a PC. This pushed one of my buttons and I sure would like to hear the reason for the damage. There is nothing that I know of about the off line switch mode power supplies used in PC that would require a good sine wave. The AC power goes to a bridge rectifier and then to a filter capacitor. A square wave may heat up the capacitor a little more than a sine wave but that is about all. However one problem that can happen with gas generators is that they have a tendency to go out of regulation and overvoltage just as they run out of fuel. This can damage a lot of things not just computer power supplies. Suggestion: don't let your generator run out of fuel.
