Hi RAU4ever,
I don't know what kind of setup or mic you have, but your sound problem sounds like fan noise. This often happens with lower quality mics esp laptop built in mics. I have come across this problem with desktops too where the fan caused the table top to vibrate, which the mic pick-up interpreted as noise (since sound is just vibrations anyway). You should consider getting an inexpensive headset w/ mic for doing your recordings.
Newegg has several options in the $10-$15 price range. I bought one and it works great (though the ear piece is on the small side). Having the mic close to your mouth helps keep out other extraneous noises while keeping your hands free. Before shelling out money, try a few test recordings where you pick up and hold your mic in your hand, it should give you a pretty clear idea.
Good Luck!
