There are also one or two bad solder joints on the top of the board...

What I would suggest is putting the EPROM in the dualtos-equipped STFM I know Arti has to check the ROM is working and is the right one!

It could have been January 2020... :lol:

Just kidding, but I had an EPROM which got blank after being left uncovered and exposed to daylight after much less than 2 years.

Yea, previous ROMs, for STE, which @Badwolf prepared for me few months ago work fine in my exxos' STE adapter (which I have bought assembled by the way) so I presume, problem is in this MegaST one, which I assembled by myself. Checked all pins - everything is OK, I guess...

Oh, sorry -- I misremembered that it was an -FM.
