Hi alnic,
Static sounds are often caused by microphone/speaker feedback or bad/inappropriate connection. You can at least minimize the static input by considering the following options:
- Try to disable the microphone on either the headset or the webcam, depending on which you would like use. Just disable this in Sounds Properties (for Windows Vista and 7: Start > Control Panel > Hardware and Sounds > Sounds > Recording tab > right-click on C270 Microphone or USB Microphone for headset > select Disable > click on OK). If the headset is plugged in via 2 jack plugs, just unplug the pink jack plug (microphone).
- If you are using external speakers, level the television volume down to zero.
- Make sure that the microphone is as far from the speakers as conveniently possible.
Hope that helps to address the issue.
Warm Regards,
