Make sure it's seated properly -- with some designs of socket, it's
possible for the clips to click into place, but the RAM stick not
actually be level in the socket. Laptop RAM sockets tend to be pretty
foolproof, though.
All the A1200 trapdoor RAM/accelerator cards I've got have SIMM slots
of the type you describe, so the approach has been around a while. I
was interested to find a flash SIMM in the Javastation I acquired the
other day too; I hadn't seen it used for anything but DRAM before...
