I got my PC-ditto working the first try when I installed it, it died a month
later but that is a different story.
 Make sure that the pins of the 68000 piggyback connecter are tight, bend the
pins inward (EVENLY!) so that it snaps on tight.  make sure you put in the jumper
if you don't have a coprocessor.  re-check the lines on the cables, they should 
be oposite on either end, they cross in the middle.
  If it is installed correctly it should come up with the main screen fairly
quickly after running the program (on a hard drive).
  That is about all I can think of right off hand, the PCDMENU program has OK
defaults, just check which drive is designated as A and B.

  Hope this helps.    8-)
