Really weird sound problem

So I have my desktop and my laptop next to each other, and the desktop is running a USB sound card. The laptop power adapter sparks audibly when you plug it in, as it is ancient as hell. When the laptop power adapter sparks, the USB sound card on the desktop packs up, and needs to be replugged. The two PCs are on separate power bars, both surge protected, but on the same circuit breaker. Any tips or reasons known?

Power does weird things. I've had my little stand fan make a pop noise in my headphones when I change the fan speed with my phone plugged into the charger.

Thy hath sinneth, and in thy life thou hast fallen to an unholy, unspeakable level of humanity. Thou hast given into your basest needs. And suffered many years under thine Satan-box. However, if thine be willing, as thy hast show yourself to be, thy can ascendeth into thy glorious fold of the glorious church. Go well, my brother, may your temps be low and your frames high. ~ MrDynamicMan
