We were wondering if anyone had any experience with this problem before we attempt it again.

A few years back, on a past trip to the US we brought back just the CPU (Tower/Case) for our computer. (No Monitor etc).....

It had worked fine when we got it in the US, but as soon as we plugged it in here, it EXPLODED!
I ASSUMED that maybe it had gotten moisture in it, when it was in the baggage compartment, since sometimes articles in our luggage are very cold and sometimes have moisture on them............

I have another that I would like to bring back on a trip this month and was wondering if anyone else had any experience packing a computer in the "checked" baggage on a plane.............

Thanks,
