read this (sheldon brown on wheel building) .
pay particular attention to this
and this.

You can do this stuff yourself but if you don't feel comfortable doing it have a bike shop or a bike savvy friend do it. Basically a machine built wheel (and machine building is how they make them this cheap) needs some human attention before it's really ready for the road.
