Gives error memory message when tries to change

Hi,
See if the cursor is checkered. If so, the calculator is out of memory.
You may have very little memory available and then wanted to create a table with a very small DeltaTbl (the table step). If the step is small, and the domain is large, very many points will have to be generated and that may make the calculator unable to comply for lack of RAM.

I suggest you free some Ram by clearing the lists, clearing the entries. To do so you press [2nd][MEM][3:Clear Entries] to clear entries, then press [2nd][MEM][4:ClrAllLists] to clear the lists.

Alternatively, you can just reset the Ram by pressing [2nd][MEM][7:Reset][1:All Ram][2:Reset][ENTER]. Then clear the Ram Cleared message and start again your table.

Hope it helps.
Thank you for using FixYa and for rating this solution.

Memory menu doesn't work.

If you are willing to reset it, hold the "CLEAR" button while you take out the batteries and then let go of clear, then put the batteries back in, and if that don't work, reverse the last two steps, and if that don't work, I suggest that you get professional help
