digitizing nightmare...for a novice

Ok, so i am first time editor, using my new Final Cut 4 HD.
I have shot all my footage on 24p f5, and i am intercutting with MOS 16mm transferred from digibeta and dubbed down to Mini DV

Now , I am not sure what i have to do to prep my footage to be edited. I have no other monitor except the one on my labtop

----What I did-----
1) I logged my media, and batch captured from there on to my Lacie hardrive.

However, I was informed that this is not correct way to capture footage with this camera/setting....and eventually you will see the interlaced frames. what do i have to do to avoid this now and not worry about when i export to either a DVD, Mini DV, etc?

so if i am in the wrong, do i have to log and digitize/capture all over again? Can i still use my remaining logs or do i have to redo them? How do i remove the digitized material out of my logs, so just the logs remain?

HOW WILL THIS WORK WHEN I BRING IN THE 16MM? any guidlines?

anyways, i really appreciate any help someone could give me, as i have a time limit for post, and i am learning the hard way. thank you.
