So basically just clip it to an unpainted surface of the case as long as the case is grounded? And you ground that how?
you can use anything that is grounded. "grounded" is a literal term. to be grounded, you have to be in contact with something metal that is (or is attached to something that is) physically underground, such as a water pipe.

if you stick a metal wire thats attached to u in to an outlet wont it shock u to death? Haha cuz i know i was always taught not to stick forks in outlets or grab plugins by the metal part
lol :haha: no it won't, but I also do not suggest doing anything with household current unless you know what you are doing, or you feel like getting shocked (i have been shocked by house current a few times... trust me, it's not a nice feeling
)
in a standard 110v USA 3 prong outlet, the round slot is the ground, the long slot is the neutral, and the short slot is the "hot" (or "live") wire, this of course assumes that it was wired correctly. you can touch any of them by themselves without getting shocked. but if you touch the "hot" and either of the other two at the same time then you will get a painful shock that at the very least will force your finger and arm muscles to stay very tense for a few hours (A/C current tends to make your muscles contract, which makes it difficult to let go).
I am telling you this as general information,
I would strongly suggest that you do not do it!
