Becky,
It sounds like you may have more than one problem. I don't think either is
dirty tape heads.
The low hum may be a 60 cycle hum from the AC power source. Try running a
wire from a known ground to either the computer and/or the tape deck. The
ground could be a radiator, a metal outlet cover plate, etc.
Good luck.
