When I installed my simms, I could not get my mac to boot up correctly.
I thought that I fried a cmos chip or something, but actually I just did
not shove the simms in their sockets hard enough and all of the traces on
the simms pc board were not making good contacts with the socket.  Try to
re-install the simms with a little more force.
