Does nSpire touchpad have maintenance options?
« on: July 31, 2010, 01:09:49 am »
Hello, I'm Northern Snow from PRC. One person in our forum (fxesms.5d6d.com) has a nSpire touchpad and he installed os 1.1. Then he found the keyboard was confusion. So he wanted to install os 2.1 again but he selected the file of os 1.7 by mistakes. And os 1.7 runs very terrible on touchpad -- the handheld start, disp a black screen and then reboot.
We know on nSpire with clickpad we can use ctrl+p+home+on to enter the maintenance options and delete the os, but on nSprie with touchpad on and home is the same key. And I didn't find any way to delete the os.
What can he do?

And computer link software does not recognize the handheld

Thanks a lot and sorry for my bad English.

You may want to edit your post with what you just said.  Other than that, sorry I'm not very savvy on the Nspire yet

Sorry. Now I edited it.
Does any one know?
I think there are some ways to enter. Like the self-check, on clickpad you should press esc+menu+g+on and touchpad is esc+menu+minus+on.

Now it should be Doc+Enter+EE+On, but I am not sure if it's the same accross all OS versions. Hopefully it should work.

Welcome on the forums by the way. :)

It's Nspire, not nSpire.
Sorry, I just had to point that out :P

Well done! It works!
And... how do you read the word "Nspire"?
I think it is n(the letter) spire(the word spire)
so I write its name as nSprie......

"Nspire" is supposed to be a play on the word "inspire", I think.

northern_snow: as bwang pointed, the proper spelling is Nspire :)

Nah it's really TI-Nspire. And yeah Nspire is a play on the word inspire. Not that it's really such a big matter, though, anyway :P

But, if you look on the nspire, it has a lowercase n

Yeah, but check on TI website. They say Nspire, so it's definitively Nspire.

Hello, I'm one of the admins from fx-ES(MS). Thank you for solving this problem. By the way, how do you find out the right keys?
Sorry for my bad English.

Mhmm I never heard of fx-ES(MS) before. This topic is about the TI-Nspire graphing calculator, by the way.

(Unless the post above is a spambot)
