Midi not working with my cubase SX 3????

[ddeez]

my current setup is

windows XP
Cubase sx 3
Emagic AMT8 midi interface

My cubase recognizes that my AMT 8 is connected to the computer and i can select the ins and outs for it in cubase. When i hit a key on my keyboard my AMT 8 lights up. BUT i CANT get ANY midi signal to show up in cubase....what am i doing wrong?

On the MIDI track make sure that you either are monitoring (the monitor icon is highlighted) or you are in record-ready mode (that is, the record icon is red). You can simply point and click on these icons.

Hope this helps!
