Several things can cause this. However it is easy to fix if you can run a wire through the wall to the outside near your computer. Just drive a good ground rod into the ground and then connect the ground rod and the case of the puter with a good piece of copper wire.

Hi vjreddy, your problem is that your computer doesn't have a wire to the ground, if you have noted, the computer power cable has 3 things, 2 for the power and 1 for the ground, you should connect the middle one to the ground, with the help of someone that can make the connection between your computer and the ground, after that, everytime that you touch your computer, all electric shocks will be redirected to the ground without affecting you.. I hope this helps you

I think it is your power cable problem. At first check it or change it, then try. Hope you will solve your problem
