Electrical shocks on my laptop?

[Vengeful Veteran]

So, I bought a HP Pavillion g4 around 2009 (Horrible for gaming and I didn't knew much about computers at that time.) and until today, I noticed I will get electrical shocks on the edges of my laptop's keyboard.

What's the issue? Is it ESD? (I live in an Apartment). I have it, like, everyday. Regardless of whether I'm gaming or not. It's hard not to put my hands/fingers around the area. By the way, I might not be using this until the end of this month, I'd be getting myself a rig by then.

Much love to the community!

I had the battery disabled since last year. I remembered replacing my PSU couple of years ago because the first one was faulty and it was fine until now.

So, what should I do? I'll try changing the cable from the socket.
