== Software Compatibility Issues == The STE has some known software compatibility problems that can be mistaken for hardware faults: * '''Some ST games crash or behave incorrectly on the STE.''' This is caused by programs that access hardware registers directly (bypassing TOS) and encountering the different register layout of the GST MCU/Shifter. This is a software issue, not a hardware fault. * '''Joystick plugged in causes strange behaviour in some applications.''' Notably, the word processor 1st Word Plus can behave erratically with a joystick connected to the enhanced ports. Remove joysticks from enhanced ports when running non-STE software. * '''TOS 1.62 has known bugs.''' Upgrading to TOS 2.06 resolves many stability issues and adds features including 1.44 MB floppy support and improved hard drive compatibility.
