A friend who'd unsuccessfully bought two third-party SIMM upgrades
for his II may have found the problem.  Turns out he didn't have the
same initial SIMM bank as everyone else -- i.e., it was from a
different manufacturer.  The local guru at Levco suggested that
adding a second bank of RAM, not from that manufacturer, would
probably screw up the timing -- particularly if the second bank
of RAM became ready (on each cycle) before the first.

Wish I had the manufacturer's names to offer more.  But this might
explain why some of these upgrades work for some, not all.
