BDavis0092 Probe Posted: 9 Nov 2005 17:31 GMT Total Posts: 7 | I've had my 89-Ti for a while now and have been trying to put games on it. It wouldn't work on my other computer so I tried a different one but now after I download the file and write click it, send to Ti-device doesn't even come up. Any body know what I'm doing wrong? |

BDavis0092 Probe Posted: 10 Nov 2005 14:21 GMT Total Posts: 7 | Okay nevermind my first question. I tried it on a new computer and got it to work but I have a new question. I tried sending PreOS to my calculator and it said (USB communication error: insufficient memory). This can't be right because I cleared all my RAM files. Anbody know how I can clear more memory? |

Also, depending on what grade you are in, you can probably delete some of the pre-installed apps to free more memory. (You can also reinstall them later if need be.) |
BDavis0092 Probe Posted: 10 Nov 2005 17:21 GMT Total Posts: 7 | I already deleted some of the pre-installed apps. I am also saving it to the ram. |
BDavis0092 Probe Posted: 10 Nov 2005 18:07 GMT Total Posts: 7 | Okay, so I've been fixing my own problems all day. I sent preos and tankers to my calculator and istalled them. Now where do I go to run them? |

Andy Administrator Posted: 11 Nov 2005 14:35 GMT Total Posts: 939 | ... But the 85 isn't 68K! And you can't run ION or MirageOS on it either! ...
You can't judge everything by processor class! You have to go by model number... |

BDavis0092 Probe Posted: 12 Nov 2005 13:26 GMT Total Posts: 7 | Okay so here's an update. I've gotten everything installed and some games on and they run now. But I was wondering if there was any way I could access Preos from the main list of folders and get a drop down list of all the games like on the 83 with mirage? |
