I just recently moved into a house that had all the electrical service

am getting small shocks more than i ever did, its stronger than a
static shock. When this happens, it drops the voltage enough to
restart my computer. At first I thought this was a computer issue
until I had it reset without laying a finger on it by getting a shock
from the cell phone charger. Any shock I receive in the room its in
will cause the computer to reset. What is causing this? Bad ground?
The wiring is in wrong?

any ideas will help, thank you for your time

Assuming this is not a troll.....

It might help if you told us what you were doing or touching and what
you were standing on and wearing on your feet when you get those shocks.

It happens when I touch anything in the room when a shock goes off,
cell phone charger, anything plugged in, sitting or standing doesn't
matter.. i just added in a battery backup to try and get around the
drops, no luck there. I do have a good volt meter, how would i use
this to check the ground in the basement ground system? I also do
not know what wiring was in this house before, but it all was ripped
out and replaced with new wiring and new circut breaker box from the
old style screw in breaker box.
