Is the socket equipped with a ground pin or a ground metal contact, along with the cable? If not, move around the house and connect only the PC to other sockets.
They lack the pin, just the metal connections. Additionally, all my connectors aren't connected to ground.
I concur that connecting grounding to the outlets is essential. However, I’m curious about whether it’s typical for PCs to cause shocks. I connected a voltmeter to the computer and observed readings between 0.1 and 0.5V. It’s a small amount, but it could potentially disrupt the signal to my microphone.
It seems likely but not certain. Most of the house is probably grounded, which makes it less likely. I also mentioned a dedicated line for this room that can handle 3000W—old cables wouldn’t work. It’s possible other issues exist, such as a bad USB cable or something else. Unfortunately, I’m still unsure about which peripherals are connected (unless I missed something).
The issue lies in the fact that I've been trying to connect various devices to my PC without success. Initially, I used a very inexpensive USB cable from a dollar store, and it caused some parts of the computer to deliver a slight shock. This problem persisted for about a week after I removed the faulty cable. Essentially, anything plugged into the computer—whether it's a USB cable or something else—can cause this effect, not just USB devices.
Confirmed without any additions and addressing the same concern again.
