My screen gives me a big black box. i did the reset using the replacing battery while holding clear the calculator wouldn't turn on and took out the batteries and put them back now the screen is black again
Adjust the brightness setting...
Had you left it in direct sunlight for a long period or perhaps in a very hot car? Sounds like the LCD is damaged.
Press 2nd button and down arrow, you might just need to adjust the brightness

Hello,
First of all, and I mean no offense here, check that
the batteries are inserted correctly, respecting the polarity +-+-. The
flat part (bottom) of the battery is the one that sits on the
protruding helix-like electrical terminal. Inside calculator, there is
polarity diagram.
When you change batteries, the display
contrast may become too dim (too light) for the user to see anything.
In that case, it can be adjusted.
Adjusting the screen contrast. Here is how to do it.
There is a key labeled 2nd. It is blue on the TI84Plus, and yellow/orange on the TI83Plus.
The
lack of screen contrast is the most frequent cause of 'malfunction'.
Try readjusting contrast, as described above. If that does not solve
the problem, post a comment to this thread detailing what you did and
the calculator response and we will troubleshoot further.
Good luck.

That means that you know your calc crashed. This can be caused by taking out the batteries durring running time, happened just randomly. Well nothing to fear just press clear and it should go away but if it stays on that screen you have problems and is best to try some of these methods. Take out all the bateries and press and hold the on button for 30 seconds. Put the batteries back in and it should have reset. Warning you should archive everything incase this happens. To archive go to 2nd mem and hit enter to put a astrick next to the app (meaning archived)

Hello,
I have just done what you said you had done, but I got a nice, correct table of values. You might have discoverd a secret command to clear memory.
Cheers.

I have the same problem, insert new batteries and the screen goes black. I even had the case on it the whole time and not in direct sunlight. Does any one know of anything i can do besides buy a new one.
I had the same problem of the screen going black after replacing the batteries. Mine was never in direct sunlight, it was on a shelf in a closet. Any suggestions??
