STABILITY ISSUES V1.5
There seems to be a mixed bag of if the integrated blitter motherboards work or not. As such I am not recommending fitting the V1 or V1.5 plug in booster to those type of motherboards.

HARD DRIVE ISSUES V1.5
Issues with the hard drive Generally not been found or running unstable in "boosted mode" (working fine in 8MHz mode), needs the pull-up resistors on the DMA databus. As shown in this post.. https://www.exxosforum.co.uk/forum/viewt ... 417#p15270

Currently there is no other fixes for the V1.5 as it is discontinued and abandoned.

FUTURE PRODUCTIONS
I have taken this booster of sale the time being, maybe indefinitely I am not sure yet. I may produce a small batch in the coming months which wire up as the V1 did. Though as there is hardly any demand these boosters, it is not going to be high up on my to do list.
