> ok. i just built a new one. it was working great. then something weird happened. i took out the DVD drive (so now there is nothing in the bay) and that is it. i didnt do anything else. now when i tough the metal part of my chair, something shorts or something and the computer restarts itself without warning. keep in mind that i have hardwood floors and the computer is on a wooden desk…any thoughts?

when you took out the drive you musta had static somehow prolly seems like I had a set up that did simular when i tryed to hook something up in the front port of the usb soon as it touched it would restart.
