Just to say thank you, you are the gods. Too happy to have an STF with 4MB of RAM. It's hard (dé solder) work but it's worth it !

Well done.
I've one of these on my shelf since forever that I need to get around to fitting.
Always nice to see the success stories!

good.... it works very well when I'm at 4MB but when I go to 1MB I have this screen. It worked well in both cases two days ago. I don't understand. if you have any ideas.

Just a small observation that your switch is on top of the metal shifter box, if any of those switch contacts just happened to catch the metalwork , then that could also lead to a crash.
Also have you tried separating the 2 wires to the switch ? They should be kept as short as possible also.

You could also try this. The black wire can solder anywhere to GND.
