Did you unzip the .8xp, .8xg or .8xk files before sending them to your calc? Oh basic does suck for games in general, but there is a use for it. Sometimes...

You only need and can transfer files that have extensions as follows: .8xp - programs .8xg - file group .8xk - flash app (.8xu is the operating system upgrade) You only need to transfer files with any of three extensions listed above. These are the actual files your calc can run. Any other files in the zip are the source and documentation stuff which won't go onto your calc.

It would really suck if you tried to make a program when you were driving.** |

I have seen women applying makeup while driving and some dudes drinking cofee AND reading newspaper while driving. That IS seriously scary and you'd never want to notice that a car next to you has such a driver. Oh and while it may sound funny, you won't be amused when you actually whitness something like that yourself.
