Output from W/O 1 & 2 (M-Audio 1010LT) produces hum on A

:( This is my first post and reading all the posts here suggest that there are may pros contributing their excellence.

I have just embarked on a digital recording project and obtained a M-Audio 1010LT PCI card. I will be using this (and Ableton Live) on an HP Win XP SP2 machine with plenty of memory and a large drive. I actually have 2 questions:

Any reason I should not buy an M-Audio FireWire Solo?

I think I am going to get the M-Audio FW Solo. I currently have a Tascam US-122. I'm looking to get the AD / DA inputs that the Tascam lacks. Is there any reason to avoid the FW solo? If so, why? and then, what do you recommend instead in the $200-300 range?

I'm using a 15" PowerBook with Tiger and only record Vocals and the occasional hardware synth or drum machine.

SX2 and M-Audio FW 410. Can i record line in with fx?

Atm i'm using Cubase SX2 and a M-Audio FW 410.
The thing is, i have a roland jd-800 connected to the 410's line input. In SX2's mixer i can put an insert (e.g. compressor) on the line input but it doesn't work. No effect no matter what works. Not even the channel's EQ.
It seems Cubase doesn't do any effect on the line input. Is this correct?
