Default Laptop Static/Noise Problem

I just got the M-Audio Firewire Solo box today and it works great on my desktop but on my laptop while the laptop is plugged in it gives off this noise/static. I think it might be a ground loop isolation problem and i have a ground loop isolator from Radioshack but its for RCA connections. I'm thinking I might need a power conditioner. Any ideas?

Laptops are well known for this problem.

It's funny, my desktop had this problem when I introduced a subwoofer. I tried balanced cables, unbalanced cables, a Furman power conditioner... nothing worked. Then I tried a ground loop isolator and it worked perfectly. I changed the connections to TS for it to work with my system.
