Jennie,

Do what the nice techies say, get the isolator. Or run on batteries.

Had the same problem with my Compaq lappie. Got around it by using a two-prong adapter without connecting the ground. NOT a good idea. (I couldn't use batteries because my machine was a desktop replacement--full Pentium 4, not a mobile version. It had about an hour of battery life, unless I actually DID something with it, lol.) My musician friends eventually got isolators for their home studios.
