Are you trying to make a drop shadow for an object against a transparent background? At least it sounds like this to me. (Otherwise, you don't get the checkerboard pattern.) I've experienced that in this case the drop shadow isn't easy to notice. I usually create a temporary white layer to see the effect, and then delete this layer again. (You will have to move this white layer to the bottom first). I'm hoping that my description is of some help.
