Re: [TenTec] RAM CLEAR - no help, My first Orion II bug

["Gary Harwell" <gharwell@cpros.com>]

Shortly after I said that the ram clear fixed the problem, it did it again! 
Should have kept quiet. I was in screen color selection #3, had been using 
#4 for a week or so. Don't know if the color selection has anything to do 
with it or not.
