Do you have high fields from the peripherals when the computer is off? How
about when the computer is unplugged? Do you have a different keyboard or
mouse that you can try with this same computer?


These simple tests may shed some light on the source of the problem.

If you need to shield electric field from a mouse or keyboard, lessemf.com
has several shielding fabrics (see high performance mesh and veilshield)
that can be used to cover a keyboard and/or mouse. They also have shielded
gloves. Make sure you use a ground cord with electric field shields.
