Verse 2/...Ok you guys write it.
Back to the mundane. If your laptop is noisy you probably have an old one or you're not using a ground plug and you're picking up ground hum. Try it with the battery, it it's quiet then you need a two prong adapter. The newer ones have very good mini plug audio outs.
