The cable is one that I paid £5 for (=one of the higher priced ones on Amazon, so I assumed it would be at least okay. Turns out I overpaid by £3, and there's another company selling it for £1.95. I'm returning my current one and getting one from a trusty brand like Stagg.
It's entirely possible that it's just the cable - but I'm not so sure considering the results between the 1/4 inch converter and the XLR were basically nothing and the 1/4 inch converter works with my electric guitar just fine.
Speaking of the XLR cable - when not plugged into anything there is a fairly loud hum/buzzing noise. Is this natural or have I been sold a crappy cable?
How do I check those stats for my computers jack?

Probably the cable; don't worry about tue other, I doubt the power is too much to worry about blowing anything.
So with both jacks, you used the same cable and an adapter at the guitar? I am fairly positive it is the cable. See if you can borrow a 1/4" standard instrument cable amd if that makes a difference.
Also I don't kknow about XLR cables, but at least with instrument cables, if it is not plugged in, there will be a hissy feedback like a buzz, especially if you touch it to the ground or your finger, that's normal.
