I have a subwooferthat came with two version S-220 Logitech speakers after disconnecting them from my other computer and moving, which is humming. How can I fix this?

You have to understand how speakers work. They convert electrical signal, through the wizardry of electromagnetism, into sound. Basically, if you have electrical current, you have magnetism, and vice-versa (that isn't the whole story, but yea).

So, if your subwoofer is humming, it means there is some piece of electrical equipment or otherwise causing electromagnetic interference in the vicinity of either your subwoofer or any of the wires connecting it. Since you say it happens when connected to your laptop as opposed to your desktop, I think the most likely reason is that there is a power cord in too close proximity to either your sound card of any of the sound-signal carrying cables between your sound card and the woofer. Sometimes you can do something about it (move the power cable), sometimes you can't (battery is right next to the sound card's ports). In the latter case, you can buy better shielded sound-signal carrying cables, or an external sound card of some sort.

Last thread he made, he just kept spamming even though we gave him legit solutions, but he was too lazy to try them out.
Also, there's a lot of Q&A sites and a thing called tech support. They work with dealing with people like him.

God damn yes. This is one of the last places anyone should look for tech support (unless NG related), and he should take a hint when his last thread was locked, and the thread before that too.

He says on his profile page:
All the blams, saves, reviews and posts I made, never happened and I do not go to the forum.

I think he's a troll

You mean the blams, saves, reviews and posts you made that are old never happened? You said you made them but they never happened? So you didn't make them? And what the hell do you mean you do not go to the forum. That's obviously not true?
