need help with noise

i have a firepod and was previously using it with a compaq laptop. i didn't really have any problems, except when getting into a larger number of tracks and effects. it was an old pentium 3, so i decided to upgrade with a newer laptop. my new gateway is an AMD Athlon 64 and beats the compaq in every category, except for the hard drive. the new computer only has a 4200rpm drive.

Overdrive Noise

I just purchased a new Fender Blues Deluxe, and I love the FAAAAATTTT bottom end on it. It gets a great crunch on the Normal Channel when you crank it. However, when I crank the overdrive past about 4 or 5, it seems REALLY noisy. Even with the Master Volume turned down around 2 or so. (I mean with the guitar strings muted.)
