is the linking software one use?
As when windows 8 is out i am upgrading..
Do you mean the TI-Nspire Student Software, or the TI-Nspire Computer Link Software? The latter can be installed any number of times, but the former is more limited. I'm not sure if it's one-use.

This is what the readme looks like for me:
=============================
= Ndless v2.0 for TI-Nspire =
=============================
What is it?
===========
Ndless combines an executable loader and utilities to open the TI-Nspire to
third-party C and assembly development.
As a TI-Nspire user, installing Ndless on your calculator will enhance the
Operating System with the functions required to run assembly programs until the
next reboot.
What do I need to install it on a TI-Nspire?
============================================
- A TI-Nspire CAS or non-CAS
- OS v1.7, v2.0.1 or v2.1.0 installed on it. v2.0.0 is not supported, you
should update your OS.
- Any linking program such as TI-Nspire Computer Link Software
How do I install it?
====================
First locate the file 'ndless_installer_os-<version>.tns' in the calcbin/
directory of Ndless where <version> matches the OS version currently installed
on the calculator.
Send this file along with the file 'ndless_resources.tns' to any directory of
the calculator. Make sure that the name of the target directory doesn't contain
any special characters such as '.'. The two documents must be in the same
directory.
Unplug the calculator from the computer (trust us, it is important).
Open 'ndless_installer' from the Documents screen of the calculator and wait a
few seconds. Now:
- The calculator may display a popup about the success of the installation.
That's it!
The installation is not permanent: you need to reinstall Ndless after each
reboot.
- The calculator may display a frozen clock and possibly 1, 2 or 3 vertical
bars of random pixels on the screen. You are out of luck, the installation
failed. The TI-Nspire may reboot by itself after a few seconds.
If not, force a reboot by unplugging the USB cable if plugged in, then removing
and putting back a battery. Retry the installation again.
If you can't install Ndless after multiple attempts, jump to the section
'Installation problem report' below.
How do I install it on nspire_emu/Ncubate?
==========================================
Use the "connect" command of the emulator, then send 'ndless_installer.tns' and
'ndless_resources.tns' from the calcbin/ directory to any directory of the
emulated calculator.
Open 'ndless_installer' from the Documents screen of the calculator and wait a
few seconds for the installation.
If the installation makes the calculator hang or reboot, retry the installation
on a OS image that has just been created.
How do I upgrade from v1.7?
===========================
First follow the uninstallation steps below, then the installation steps above.
How do I run an executable?
===========================
Executables have the extension .tns as standard documents.
- Transfer the executable with a linking program to any folder of the TI-Nspire
- Run the executable from the Documents screen
You may try the particles demo available in the calcbin/samples/ directory.
Programs built for Ndless v1.0/v1.1 won't work with this version until they are
updated by their authors.
How do I uninstall it?
======================
Make sure the documents 'ndless_installer.tns' and 'ndless_resources.tns' are
still in the same directory on the calculator.
Then open 'ndless_installer' from the Documents screen. A full reboot will be
initiated.
Troubleshooting
===============
- If the TI-Nspire becomes unusable, hangs or loops at reboot time:
* Reboot the TI-Nspire, by unplugging the USB cable, then removing and putting
back a battery.
* Enter the maintenance menu by turning it on while holding the following keys
until half the progress bar:
with the ClickPad keypad: Home+Enter+P then ON
with the TouchPad keypad: Doc+Enter+EE then ON
* Select '2' to uninstall the current OS. Reinstall it when asked to.
- If running an executable from the documents screen displays the following
message: "Sorry. Could not open document 'xxx.tns'", Ndless has not been
correctly installed. Run 'ndless_installer' again after a reboot.
Known issues
============
A more complete list of known isues can be found in the tracker:
http://www.unsads.com/projects/nsptools
* The installation confirmation message may not be displayed in some
configuration. An error about the document format being not supported is
displayed instead.
* The installation may crash when ndless-installer is run from the directory
MyLib/.

Installation problem report
===========================
First make sure:
- You are using the right 'ndless_installer_os-<version>.tns' file compatible
with the Operating System (OS) version currently installed on your calculator
- You have followed the steps in the troubleshooting section above
- You don't find a solution on the web sites above
Then count if you can:
- the number of vertical bars of random pixels which appear at the top of the
screen at installation time
- The number of dotted lines which appear at the bottom of the screen
E-mail this with anything which might help the authors to fix the issue.

Changelog
=========
See Changes.txt.
As for the touchpad: All of the key codes have been remapped, and I don't even know if the arrow keys can be detected anymore. The difference is not very large for humans, but programs have been written in a way that makes it very hard to support the touchpad unless they're rewritten - and sadly, the source code for gbc4nspire is lost, so it can't be modified easily.

Are you sure that you downloaded the newest version, Ndless 2.0?
274
« on: August 15, 2011, 09:42:53 am »
Yep, that OS is supported by Ndless. I'm not completely sure how to install it, but I believe that the included readme file describes it for you. gbc4nspire normally doesn't support the touchpad keypad at all, but there's a hacked version available that works decently: http://ourl.ca/3840/166688

Ndless is a program that you can install on Nspires. There are both versions that you have to compile and versions that are already finished so that you can use them right away. Ndless does not delete the OS of the Nspire, so you can continue using it as normal. Which OS version do you currently use, and what keypad do you use? Some OSes block Ndless so that you can't use it.

While sending the OS from another calc isn't the common way of doing things like these, I don't see any reason for why it shouldn't work.

I didn't remember it could be slowed to 29 MHz. The max was 116, right?
It's just as easy to reduce it to 29 as it is to increase it to 116, but I don't know if it has been successfully done yet, considering that the calc resets once you change speed.

The Prizm doesn't interess me now, to know my fx-9860GII+ is faster is disgusting me. How Casio could slow this calculator?
I think it's just the BASIC that's slow. Both run at around 29MHz, so they're actually both the same speed (however, shells in the works right now like khavi and Walnut are probably going to up the clock speed on the PRIZM by at least 4x, so it will be *faster*)
Actually, the Prizm runs at 58 MHz by default, so it's already twice as fast as the fx-9860 (although it can be set to 29 MHz if that is necessary).
279
« on: August 13, 2011, 04:32:43 pm »
I guess ASM/C?
I'd say you be guessing right. On the Prizm there are so many more possibilities for a Powder Game port with the hi-res color screen, large memory, and fast proc. I can hardly wait
FAST PROC! Let me laugh! The Cowards form Casio do as crappy work as TI, specially slowing down the calculators! I'm sick of the priszm performances!  BUt In fx-9860, with or without cpuspeed... Wow
By this, do you mean the actual CPU speed, or the speed at which math commands and such execute? Both are dependent on the CPU, but the latter also depends on Casio's OS, which doesn't have much to do with what programs can be written. I do not believe that the clock speed has decreased, but the math may have gotten slower - I'm not sure since I don't have an fx-9860. Eiyeron, please don't troll. The Prizm, while not as fast as some of the other Casio calculators, is still faster than all of the 83 and 84+ series calculators from TI. Furthermore, the Prizm is more than fast enough to run some impressive projects, especially since it can be overclocked.
The Prizm definitely has a better processor than TI's calculators (excluding the Nspire, which is slightly faster but doesn't allow machine code execution), and if it's possible to overclock them, we'll have even more possibilities. Considering what can be done with 15MHz or even 6MHz, it will definitely be possible to create many impressive programs and games for the Prizm, although the processor speed is quite a bit slower than modern devices that aren't calcs. However, I do not agree that Eiyeron's comment was trolling. Everyone has different opinions, and calling people/comments trolls/trolling is not the best way to be friendly.

Forgive my ignorance, but this (Grammer) is an assembly library for TI-BASIC, right?
Actually it is a programming language as opposed to a library. An assembly program interprets the code instead of the BASIC interpreter. It is probably confusing since I use the TI-BASIC tokens (for now).
Like Axe?
Yes. (Methinks)
Axe is a compiled language, and Grammer is an interpreted one.

Maybe it would be possible to make the blocks transition smoothly from green to red instead of suddenly changing? The basics are a bit basic right now, but the gameplay looks nice.

Maybe it is a noob question but I didn't very understand the limit question.
The 8KB limit is about code or code+data ?
Now, how much can we write of code and/or data ?
The 8K limit is actually only about code, but old versions of Axe sometimes tried to put data before the 8K limit and code after the 8K limit, instead of placing the code before it and data after it.

Yeah, I would consider the spam much worse than their view of games. About one page of new topics of spam is created every day, and more than half of the posts in existing topics are spam.

I have no idea how to log in. My password hasn't been working for a few months, even after I reset it. The admins don't seem to be active anymore, so I don't know if this will be fixed...

I should really load this TI-killing-software on my TI again ? 
If you tell me that I should make it... OK! I'll try it!
Well, there aren't any other ways to remove it... Other than modifying the certificate manually. You should NEVER modify the certificate manually unless you're completely sure about what you're doing, as you might destroy your calculator forever.
