Hi, I know this may not be related to Vista but did know any better place to post my question (More appropriate weblogs and links are appriciated): when I turn on the computer test the chasis (the metal cover) of my power supply with a Continuity Tester suprisingly the screwdriver lights! any clues whats the problem and how should I avoid it? I know i can short circuit the case to ground to protected users from shock but it may cause power leakege (and more energy consumption) and its not a long term solution. what should I do to detect to problem and solve it!?
Sounds like there may be a wire inside your computer thats touching the cover.

You have already been told to take it to a Computer Technician. Follow that advice, and stop reposting! -- Mick Murphy - Qld - Australia "Leon_Amirreza" wrote: > Hi, I know this may not be related to Vista but did know any better place to > post my question (More appropriate weblogs and links are appriciated): > > when I turn on the computer test the chasis (the metal cover) of my power > supply with a Continuity Tester suprisingly the screwdriver lights! > > any clues whats the problem and how should I avoid it?
