	This weekend, I attempted to upgrade my Mac SE/30 to 2.5M.  I got
the casing open and the logic board removed with no trouble.  The first two
SIMM slots had four 256K boards in them, as it should.  I inserted the two
new boards into the third SIMM slot.  When I closed up the case and restarted
the Mac, I got the sad mac sound, along with a strange checkerboard pattern
on the screen.  I then tried placing one board in the third slot, and the
second board in the fourth slot.  Same reaction from the computer.  When I 
removed the new boards, it went back to normal.  Am I doing this totally
wrong?  I was grounded the whole time by a wrist tap, so I don't think I 
damaged the boards or the Mac.  Any advice would be appreciated.

Thanks,
Frank
