Power Supply Problem?!

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!
