Dual-Core DAW build - MIDI Recording No Physical

Hello, I fell upon the forum 4 days ago and have been reading and searching many posts. It helped me narrow down very much what I am looking for but I remain with some questions. I am very new at music production.

I am aiming to build a dedicated DAW mainly to produce house/electronic music. I will be doing no physical voice or instrument recording. Here is what I have as a PC.

I'm new too using this kind of program and i cant seem too get it too record anything. Im hooked up (Yamaha psr 292 keyboard)via ux16 midi to usb cable. the program just doesnt seem too want to record anything i do. I may be an idiot i dont know but i just got this program and have never used anything like it before so I'm a completely lost neewbie too this.

Midi Recording MPC 3000 vs Mac running Logic 7.0

I know this is a way of comparing Apples with Peaches but although.
I used to have an mpc 3000 LE and worked aswell on a Mac Running various versions of Logic.
Regarding the midi thing I have the idea that the MPC swings more from itself.
Am I crazy is this between my ears or is it really so.
