DSTB1 is an open-source accelerator and AltRAM card for the Atari ST: github.com/dh219/DSTB
Having received reports of issues with the first release of DSTB1 on pre-STE hardware, I've picked up an STFM motherboard off eBay. In this video I take you through what's necessary to prepare one of these early STs for the accelerator card.

![[B-Roll] External PSU: cable resistance tests
The first cable I built in my External PSU video wouldnt power my ST.
Did I get my calculations wrong? Is it a bad cable? Was someting else the problem? Was it all three?
