I would suggest you add 10K pull up network on the DMA databus like this thread shows..

Also what driver are you using with US ? and what Version of US are you using exactly ?

hddriver 4.23 ? You should try a later version as that one is very old.. I think they on version 10 now..

Have you tried the booster in 8MHz mode also ?

Is your PSU re-capped ?

Can you upload a image of the mod you have done ?

I assume ultrasatan was working reliable before booster install ?

I assume you have the DUALTOS board fitted ? Also using TOS206 ?

Can you check that blue wire to the resistor pack is actually 5v ? It looks like you wired to a different capacitor than my image..

Also did you use a bussed resistor pack or a isolated one ?
