 		 #170392 - PC "ground" loop?
Responding to: ???'s previous message
Are you getting some sort of funny "ground loop" effect due to the connection to the PC via the debug thingy?

If it's a desktop PC, what happens if you use a laptop instead, with the laptop disconnected from the mains (running on battery)?
