TV vs. Computer

[Artanis]

Here is something that might interest some of you.
It certainly interests me...

In my room, I have a TV with one of those room antennas, since there is no arial plug in the wall in my room.

So, whenever I turn on my computer, the TV goes nuts. There are waves gonig up and down the screen, and all the channels change order...!! ( They change order, or go away completely...)
Funny thing is, when I turn my comp off, it goes back to normal.

I must advise you then that operating your computer is a felony. FCC regulation makes it a federal offense to operate such devices when they interfer with communications devices. You have a case which is not FCC approved. It's not shielded properly.

cuff him crash! We will setup a public beating of the offender. :lol:

btw it must suck to have your computer play with your tv, I wonder if those case mods with the windows do the same or not. Seen a nice case and the whole side was a window.

A poor arial and/or cables/plugs may be responsible for picking up unwanted emmissions.
I have seen it before, with a TV plugged to the wall connector. I had faint interference. After I replaced the cables and connectors to some high quality shielded once, the interference dissappeared.

There's a reason why most cases have those knockout metal covers or snap in metal covers over the drive bays and under the plastic.
