Static sound in mic

[Ionut_10]

I have a static noise in microphone and I am sure it is caused because my outlet don't have grounding. I plugged the pc in other outlet with grounding and the noise disappeared... My pc is almost new and mic too... Why this happens? What to do?

It's what happens when you aren't grounded, there are alot of people with the same problem, but which you should try and plug your system into a grounded outlet. If that's not possible the only real solution would be to buy a USB to 3.5MM audio jack since most PC analog audio inputs are pretty awful.

If you are renting a house or in an apartment then grounded outlets are against code I believe so the building owner need to update them.

I forgot to mention that if I touch a usb port the noise dissapear. And my headset have 2 jacks and 1 usb for lights.
