Make sure you connect your PC to the audio filter (the small black box) - that came with the 3DS - and the audio filter to the 3DS. The capture board is generating some noise while it's running, the filter removes that. Hope this helps!

Probably USB interference. It might help if you turn down the recording volume (PC volume, not DS volume). I send a noise filter with 3DS boards to take care of that, but not DS (because it's usually less noticable on DS, and because DS capture boards are a lot cheaper). I can send you a noise filter if you need it.

Yes. If you feel like reading more about it, it's called a ground loop. Technically the "audio filter" isn't an audio filter, the proper name for it is ground loop isolator.

I plan on buying this capture card w/ my next check just trying to cover my basis for any unexpected problems that can come up. What ground loop isolator for pc do you reccomend?
