Default Pops & Crackles with Mbox 3

Hello all,
Trying to record through the Mbox & I'm getting pops and crackles. I'm hoping I've got a setting out of whack somewhere. Lenovo laptop, 16gig,i7... I'm a little at a loss when it comes to the Gain on the track, the extra oomph. As you turn the knob you don't hear much change then, boom, lot's of change. Maybe the pops are because of the extra juice?

you have it in a usb2 port right? Mbox 3 does not work on windows in usb 3 ports, well documented issue.

Is the red (overload) light on on the track? If that's so, you are experimenting digital clipping. Solution: turn down the gain knob on your preamp.
