yeah, the static varies only with the amp gain, not from the lappy. Laptop volume cranked all the way, and I'm using the volume control from the deck, but unfortunately, its still noticeable (when its there). When the car's not running, i can turn the radio amp down to where the hiss goes away, but then, what's the point? I either hear static and music/directions while driving, or nothing at all, ya know? Anyhow, I've tried running the lappy on battery only for a little bit, but no luck. Hiss still present, so i don't think its power interference or alternator whine or anything... I just don't understand why it comes and goes. Maybe its time to save up for a new sound card...
Thanks for the help tho.
