Hello all, I have a TI-84 Silver Edition and i have not used it in awhile. It was missing a battery so i put one in and turned on the calc. When i Turned it on i was greeted with the message " TI-84 Silver Edition 2.21 Ram Cleared" then i pressed the "clear" button and my calculator is basically frozen and is extremely slow. Any help would be greatly appreciated
Thanks,
cpriano
Have you tried resetting it yet?
Sorry if this is a silly question, but how do i go about doing so

Go to [2nd][+] (Mem) and choose the Reset option. Have you used a unit-to-unit (I/O, not USB) cable recently? If so, it's possible the tip may be lodged in the link port, shorting it to produce those symptoms.
yes, i have reset it and its still having the issues. and no i havent used one of those things.

Is the cursor blinking very slowly? Do keypresses register immediately, or do you have to hold them down for a while? Do all keys work, even if they work slowly?
Ya the cursor blinks slowly, the keys do NOT register immediately, i have to hold them. yes i believe all keys work

Remove one of the AAA batteries. Press and hold [CLEAR]. While holding [CLEAR], reinsert the AAA battery and press [ON]. The calculator should display the message "RAM Cleared". Release [CLEAR] and then press it one more time to remove the message.
or maybe

Remove one of the AAA batteries. Press and hold [DEL]. While holding [DEL], reinsert the AAA battery and then press [ON]. The calculator should display "Waiting...Please install calculator software now". Follow the instructions for the TI-83 family or TI-84 Plus family to reinstall the calculator operating system.
