If so, then press enter on that, and you find the home screen says "prgmA", then press enter again. Now you should have a new menu with all of the games you loaded on, select one and play. If you didn't have the "A" choice, then try the same thing with the "ION" choice, which may install it, giving you the "A" choice. On a sidenote, I believe the most popular shell is MirageOS, which takes the form of a flash app. I can't help with that one though, I don't have a flash-app enabled z80 calc. |

Total Posts: 3 | when i clicked on the programs button it said ION. and when i pressed enter 2 times, it just said sum error. you said you had a TI-83? i have a TI-84+ and when i also go to the games section for ti-84+ it says all the games on there are for ti-83... i followed the tutorial: TI-83+/SE and TI-84+/SE Visual Guide for Beginners - Sending and Managing Files and i got to the part were u select ION and press enter 2 times. when i press it the 2nd time i get a screen that says ERR: ARCHIVED, 1:Quit, 2:Goto

Hit enter to remove the star (Moves programs to RAM) and then run prgmION. Or you could just download MirageOS and run that (it's an app, it runs from the archive). |
