When i connect my pc or laptop to my tv via HDMI or VGA something causes the power in my entire house to go out meaning I have to go to the garage to reset the fuse box.

Obviously its something to do with the TV as I've tried a laptop (NC20) and computer (Aspire Revo R3600) with an HDMI cable and a VGA cable with the same annoying result.

The second the hdmi cable or vga makes contact with the tv all the power goes out.

I've rang up a few help lines and they say I need to ground my pc, sadly I have no idea how to do that.

Any help would be hugely appreciated.

Thanks
