Mic Static Issues

<div class="IPBDescription">Unknown static</div> I just recently bought myself a new pair of Plantronics Audio .90s and was surprised to find that, occasionally, while playing NS I could hear much background static (with loopback on). I tested it with my old microphone (Audio. 40) and the same thing happens. Sometimes when I restart my computer it is fixed, but more often than not theres that weird static that just drowns out your voice. This is in my basement with nobody home so there was no "actual" background static. I even unplugged the mic and still I could here the static.
Then I decided to test it on some other applications and found that when I recorded on WaveStudio I could hear a similar form of static. This led me to conclude it must be something wrong with either a) the physical Hardware or b) the drivers, here are my audio specs:
SB Audigy 2 (although the same thing used to happen to my SB Live! Value too)
Plantronics Audio. 90
THX Altec Lansing 5.1 Surround Speakers
The only other conclusion I could come up with is intereference. Is this possible?
Anybody have the same problem?

If that doesn't help try a different set of drivers. If that doesn't fix it whip out that warranty card and pack that baby up.
