please share some info if you have it - will be greatly appreciated,
i just moved to a cheap office, did some small renovation/upkeep work and to my
surprise discovered i have no ground connected in the wall sockets (facepalm)!
- NOTE, i use a USB soundblaster card and the usb connection DOES NOT isolate the noise,
(it only comes from the microphone - playback audio is perfectly fine) - i do have cheap headset tho
if i can't solve the ground issue asap, which i probably won't be able to - i need to look for a temporary solution - so does anybody know if wireless headphones can solve it? or the noise could still be picked up at the usb(?) receiver end, from the pc?
(touching the pc case or ground wire in the extension lead makes the noise disappear)
i've dealt with this before in another place on the same pc and it is 100% ground, or "lack-thereof" issue.
