Total Posts: 171 | Hey, I heard somewhere that you can get something done to your calc to give it extra RAM. Is this possible without buying a new RAM chip?

Total Posts: 714 | no, I was talking about actually adding more memory. The flash drive is a great way to add memory though the only problem with it is that it does not allow you to run basic programs.

On a side note starting five month topics again (you did it twice :) ) is not a good idea, you would be better off starting a new topic. |

Total Posts: 714 | There is no way to get more ram on to your calc. As Nikky said in the second post. No flash drive, program or any other thing will allow it. You may add a flash drive that will allow you to have more arc but in order to run any program it has to be transfered to the ram, and I say again you can't add more ram.

Total Posts: 1189 | Well I think the original confusion in this topic stemmed from the fact that the 83+SE, the 84+, and 84+SE actually have multiple pages of ram (I think a total of 128kb, though I'm not sure). The problem is that this ram is NOT utilized by the OS and can only be used blocks at a time. One of the few useful things done with this ram is making a backup copy of the calculator in case of a crash (used in Omnicalc) or using it as a saferam area for very long and memory-intensive calculations.
Also, you CAN'T add more archive. It's just like plugging a USB drive into your computer. It gives you an addition area to put stuff but has no effect on your hard drive space.
