Hi...my frnds usb port is giving electric shock(not high)...wats the problem...

is ur pc properly grounded(earthed)???
that might cause the prob!

Then every metallic part of your computer will be giving a shock.
Reason-No or faulty earthing.

Yeah.. most likely there is no proper earthing in the power supply. Rectify it quickly, else it might damage the HDD and other internal components...!
