There's an article that describes some of the problems to
be faced using computers in space at:

Bear in mind this is for a LEO Sat, it doesn't have to travel through
the Van
Allen belts or worse still, near the radioactive hellhole of Jupiter.

A lot of weapons effects can't compare to the threat already posed by
the natural
environment. If you have a spacecraft capable of safely conveying
fragile humans
around unshielded fusion reactors AKA stars, then they're already pretty
well
