do i need some sort of line conditioning or line surge protection.

Normally, there's no such filter needed. Big storage capacitor is enough. Have a look at other devices, very most do work properly, without having such a filter. So, I think, there's something wrong with your power supply.

How high is the voltage at input of 5V regulator? Do you use proper decoupling caps arround the regulator and at each chip? Do you use a PCB containing a solid ground plane?
