Building as we speak....

Got a problem, my RAM sticks are fixed into the board but the catches won't lock cos the RAM isn't 'down enough' i.e. in order for the catch to lock my RAM would have to be pushed in more but i'm pretty sure its in properly as it feels sturdy. Should i just leave it or what?

Thanks

Err are you sure it's the right RAM. It should just press in and lock.

Pictures would help.
Make sure it is in evenly too.
