Okay I will never raise it above 75.
Have you read what I wrote above ? The AHB frequency should never be overclocked on the CX, it's too unsafe.

Isn't 75 the default? Any less would be underclocking.

The default AHB frequency is 66 MHz: http://tiplanet.org/forum/viewtopic.php?f=15&t=9014 (and myself earlier at http://ourl.ca/17131/335010 )
Some people some people experienced corruption even at an AHB frequency of 72 MHz, which is less than 10% higher than the defaults, and 75 MHz is definitely well in the danger zone. Reasonable overclockers do not do anything when there's less than 10% headroom wrt. known trouble :)

Well I keep my Nspire at 222, 222, 76 with Nover, and it works fine.
Though just wondering, what is the optimal configuration?

I understand the risks. However, I've got a certain trust for computers and understanding of the sciences that tell me "It's okay in moderation." But that is just me.
There is no optimal configuration for a general set of calculators, they are all very different. My calculator can overclock to 85 AHB with a limited chance of dangerous effects, so 75 is more than safe for mine. Mine is also a new revision, it was manufactured less than a month ago and I take pride in that :P there are older ones with even better rates than mine, it just varies.
Keep trying.

I have a problem with using Portal, when i quit the game it does not save the file properly.
If i go to the MEM management and scroll over the save file it displays an ERR MEMORY and the place where the file size should be is empty (not zero)

has it something to do with the emulator or is it bad coded software?? (witch i doubt because in Wabbit it is working)
i also looked into older versions, like the one without backgrounds, they where also not working.

(and this topic is maybe not the over-clocking/nover topic? but for the emulator...)

How much stuff do you have unarchived? ERR:MEMORY indicates it ran out of room in RAM. Try archiving some other programs.

This problem occurs when a memory pointer points to an address with FFFF in it, and is a sure sign of a terrible bug. Clear your RAM immediately.
Keep trying.

I cannot open the .tns file calcemu_cx.tns, when I press the [enter] key, my ti nspire cx (running cx cas 3.10.16) just freezes.
How do I start up the emulator (What keys do I press)  ??? ?

-Thanks  :)
By the way, to clarify, I am running a cas os on a non cas os using nlaunch

Oh, when you exit the emulator using the return key, you have to turn your calculator off because the keypad no longer responds.
Keep trying.

Sorry, to specify, I meant that when I open calcemu_cx.tns (when I hit the [enter] key on my calc), the whole calc screen goes blank and my calc freeze (it doesn't respond to any keys I press).  :-\

Is my rom.tns file corrupted or do I need a newer version of the emulator? If so where can I find it?

Thanks!  :)

try to find a new rom, and the latest version is on the first page of this topic.

make sure you have an TI-84+SE rom

don't use enter but the button in the lower left corner of your calc the "↵" sign
