[SIZE=12px]today When I touched my computer case I felt static electricity. Is it possible to damage anything inside the case if I got a static shock from touching my case? Even though everything is working fine i feel uneasy. What can be damaged if I get a static shock from my case (outside of the computer)? I always get one when i touch my case. My computer sits on a piece of wood. How can i prevent it? Plz answer[/SIZE]

that's why you're supposed to wear an anti-static bracelet or put the computer up against a large metal object when you open it up and dig around.

Is your desktop placed in a 'cold environment'? like an air-conditioned room? just guessing.

My computer is in air conditioned room. But isn't a computer grounded on a piece of wood?
