ION VCR 2 PC sound records pops? I installed new drivers, new software, this product is new right out of the box and I'm running Windows 7 with updated drivers. I know it's not he VHS tape as I've recorded with no tape playing and I still get irritating clicks and pops. Ideas?

That.... sounds like a bad capacitor in the audio playback somewhere. Try the VCR 2 PC on a different computer, and see if it's the VCR 2 PC doing it, or, if the problem in in your computer's sound card. I guess here, bc I am not conversant with the device, and am unsure where the analog-to-digital conversion is being done.If it's being done by the computer, then it may be the computer's sound card.
As an old audiophile and electronics technician, popping noises in audio is usually a bad capacitor. If it's not still under warranty, shop fixes can get pricey, fast... unless it's the computer's sound, which can be fixed by disabling the onboard card and installing a new, if it has an onboard.
