i keep getting small electric shocks from the sides and underneath of my laptop- there not very big and dont hurt much- is this normal? How can i stop it? Also ive noticed if i touch the radiator while on my laptop i get a bigger shock- like the kinda shock you get when you are static and touch someone to annoy them- is this normal or is there something wrong with my laptop? thanks for your answers in advance x

Look to use your laptop on an anti-static mat. Its a known problem when laptops are used on different surfaces, especially your lap.
I am quite prone to having small static shocks, in work I get them all the time, I work in It. My chair sits on a anti-static mat, which helps me earth,

I would go and talk to someone from where you get it. I mean it maybe a small shock but still it could be the beginning of a bigger problem so why risk it. =)

I've had 2 or 3 in the past. I think its a static build up tho, caused by having it on my lap!
