If you still want to stick with using another case, especially if you have an extra laying around. I would recommend running a bonding wire between the two cases to ground the two chasis together. I would not rely on the ground prong at the cord and power strip. This is fairly simple. Just drill a hole and fasten a piece of solid wire with a green ground screw. All at home depot for less than 5 dollars. If you want to buy another case. Computergate has a full tower AT form factor for around 12 dollars plus shipping. I know I am stepping back a few years with the AT case, However some folk still utilize obsolete equipment. Peace Michael D.

Install. When you are done, remove the CD Drive and ribbon cable. Close your case. Done, cost $0. ______________________________________________________________________ Philadelphia Linux Users Group - http://www.phillylinux.org Announcements-http://lists.phillylinux.org/mail/listinfo/plug-announce General Discussion - http://lists.phillylinux.org/mail/listinfo/plug
