Question about drum volume

I have Superior Drummer. Is is best to make all drums and cymbals exactly the same volume, or is there a formula for standard drum volume?

After posting some of my songs, people tell em that the kick is too loud, a crash is too loud, hats are too low, etc.

Should I set my drum levels to a certain standard volume, then tweak the volumes on final mixdown?

M-Aduio Fast Track or Digidesign Mbox

Hey guys. I'm looking to get one or the other of these two interfaces. How do these two interfaces differ? Which has better preamps? Which would you guys recommend? Would running PT M-Powered be that much of a loss as compared to PT LE? Which is more worth it and would be more worth it in the log run? And what is this i hear about onboard DSP?

Why does this PC freeze?

Hi folks...
I have this new XP pro SP3 PC ( this is independent from any OS, though) that is connected to a socket which mains power gets switched off at night time or for the weekend.
The PC has an ASUS p6t MoBo, huge ram, i7 processor and an excellent, large be quiet! P8-PRO Dark Power Pro power supply of 900 watts, which is 40 % redundant power.
