Thanks to all who responded to my plea of help.  There was nothing wrong 
with the SIMM chips or the installation procedure. Rather, I had misunderstood
the manual (and the words of many of the people who had kindly written to me)
regarding the changes needed in the "setup" program.  I had increased the
memory setting of the expansion ram to 2048K instead of the main memory.
That's why I kept getting the "extended memory not found" message at bootup.
Now that I have a nice 1024K disk cache and a ramdrive, Windows has become
a pleasure to use.  My only dissappointment is that the version of Excel I
have won't run in Windows 3.0 Standard mode.  Tske, tske...

BTW, I found out that I have a Conner 20Mb drive.  Does anyone remember what
the drive setting for that was?
