Thanks. For some reason, finding the 100 cold-start procedure via Google wasn't working for me.
However, the free memory hasn't changed. It's still stuck at 24k. I guess it's time to get out the scope/meter/etc. and see what's going on. Not looking forward to this and not exactly sure what to try next. BTW - shouldn't your sig take the Model 100 into account? :) -Josh On Mon, Jul 4, 2016 at 8:04 AM, Ron Lauzon <[email protected]> wrote: > Hold the reset button on the back, then press Control-Break. > > > On Mon, Jul 4, 2016 at 7:07 AM, Josh Malone <[email protected]> wrote: > > What procedure should I use for a cold start?
