That is very strange. That headset/mic combination says it has a noise-cancelling microphone. It sounds like you've got the mic lying on a table next to your computer and it's picking up the fan noise/rumble. How are you using it? When you talk into it, what is the relative volume of your voice versus the background noise? If this is indeed the LX-3000 headset/mic combination, the microphone is meant to be used very close to your mouth.
