In Protools go into hardware setup and make sure that your interface is being read properly. It may be set to something other then your fast track. Then, in the MIX window make sure that your input is set correctly. If your microphone is plugged into input 1, your input on your protools track should correspond to that.
The jack with the guitar symbol is a high impedance input for a guitar so you will get a proper level and sound when plugging your guitar straight in. All of your question did not appear in the post so try rewording it so we know what you are trying to do. Thanks.
First thing is what operating system is on the computer.
Second is what does device manager say about the recording interface?
Third in audio properties from the task bar icon, what is the default device for recording?
As the Fastrack can only receive one audio signal at a time you would have to record each track seperatly into Pro Tools.
I'm guessing your mixer is a multitrack recorder.
Solo track 1 on the multitracker and playback from there into the Fastrack, with track 1 on Pro Tools set to record. Repeat this for each or your tracks on the multitracker.
When you've finished you'll need to align all the tracks in Pro Tools so they all playback in time with each other.
The Fastrack only has one audio input signal to the PC. You'll need to set your recording software to mono, then you can add stereo fx in your audio software.
Check your audio settings to make sure that it's going to the right driver.
goto: start -> control panel -> sound and audio devices
out of the 5 tabs, you'll want to pay attention to 2 of them, these are the "audio" and "voice" tabs. Make sure that your speakers on are the external sound system's drivers and not your internal sound card. (Basically, make your sound playback the same as your sound recording)
