    harrisvh, Read that link there and she also did what you suggested and it got her. You have to discharge the capacitors cause that's what holds electricity also. The old trick in electronic class was to charge up a few small cap's and then throw them back in the box so when the next student would reach in to get a cap he'd get snapped instead. If the bleed off resistors are not working correctly the circuit board will hold a charge. Use the grounded screwdriver and simply brush it across the bottom of the circuit board.
    Take the other end of the wire like was suggested and ground it. In Hoss'es case he could have grounded it to the tailgate of the truck. If the tv's/monitors have set unplugged for a few weeks, then it should be safe, I say should because there are no guarantee's in life. Play safe boy's and girls. It's not worth loosing your life over a lousy tv.
    That's a computer wrist strap that will work also,,
