Assuming the drive(s) are connected properly, I'd try a genuine low 
density (360K) 5.25" MS-DOS formatted disk in the PCT TransDrive.  Since 
you say the light comes on, it appears to recognize the drive, but not 
the disk in it.  Just to be sure, go into the PCT Control Panel (hold 
down the Shift key and press Caps Lock twice) and make sure you have the 
TransDrive listed as Drive A.  Make sure no drives are configured that 
aren't really there.

Hope that helps!
