PLEASE HELP! ! KB 37 Pod Studio Clicking Noise w/ Compaq CQ60-420US LAPTOP

I am getting a very annoying clicking sound while using my Pod Studio KB 37 as my audio Interface while trying to record w/ Sonar 8.5 or using FL Studio 9 or even when Iam not doing anything, I read a similar Post regarding this but it was for a AMD processor. I am using a Dual Core Pentium Compaq CQ60-420US with Vista SP2 latest Updates for my USB drivers and the laptop is not plugged in when this happens it does it either way PLEASE HELP I am thinking of Going back to EMU audio interfaces since I own the Original 1820M on my older Desktop and never had this issue but I love the ALL in One Package the Pod Studio KB 37 offers and really want to resolve this so I can Use it and start recording with OUT the annoying Click that happens every 30- 60 sec. Thank You for Your help ! !  Peace

    There are several reasons why you may be getting pops, clicks, and hum with our USB devices. Here are some things you should check first.

       

      1. Fill out your support profile at http://line6.com/account/supportprofile/

      2. Ensure that you have tested all cables to make sure that they are not defective (USB, audio, etc.)

      3. Ensure that you have all cables connections set up properly

      4. Adjust the Buffer Slider in the Line 6 Audio MIDI Control Panel. (Windows Users: Start/All Programs/Line6/Tools/Audio-MIDI Devices; Mac Users: System Preferences/Other/Audio-MIDI Devices)

      5. Adjust Sample Rates and Bit Depths in the Line 6 Audio MIDI Control Panel and ensure that the Sample Rates and Bit Depth settings in the Line 6 Audio MIDI Control Panel also match the project settings in your DAW/recording application

      6. Ensure that you have the Line 6 device set up in your operating system as the main input/output device (sound card); disable internal sound card in your operating system’s Device Manager control panel

      7. Ensure that your Line 6 USB Device is not connected to a powered USB hub; direct USB ports are required and please try ALL available direct USB ports during the troubleshooting process

      8. Remove all non-essential USB peripherals from the computer (not the mouse or keyboard)

      9. Disable any wireless cards on computer in Device Manager

      10. Set Power Schemes on computer in Control Panel (PC Only) to Always On

      11. There are also several other tips and optimizations you can make on your PC. Please refer to the following document for more information:

      http://line6.com/data/l/0a06007213339477ea0690cb2a/application/pdf/GearBox%203.5%20and%20later%20Windows%20XP%20&%20Vista%20Audio%20Tips%20&%20Optimizations%20(Rev%20A)%20-%20English.pdf

       

      Please try all of the above first and let us know if you continue to have any more problems. Thanks!
