The laptop is going to the mixer and the mixer is going to the amp. I don't think the amp is the problem - it's brand new and all my mics and my laserdisk player are MORE than loud enough; problem is definitely related to the output of the laptop (or the fact that there's not enough gain on the stereo channel I'm using). I'm using a cable that has the headphone jack for the laptop on one end and 2 1/4" jacks on the other - I'm plugging the red 1/4" plug into the right input of the channel and the white 1/4" plug into the left input of the channel (same channel - meant for stereo inputs). I used the laptop on a different mixer (a powered mixer) for about 2 weeks (then it died, which is why I have a new mixer and amp), and it was OK, but the stereo channels on that mixer had a true gain knob (unlike the new one). I'm going to try it tonight on a channel that has gain - I'll let you all know the results. Thanks a bunch.
