  No, TXTSHADOW wouldn't do something like that.
      You may have accidently altered the calc's interrupt speed(port 4) 
that would cause the cursor and keypresses(_getkey) to be extremely 
slow(so slow that you think it locked). If you modified the interrupt 
speed, you can only fix that threw a program. Reseting the memory does 
nothing at all(at least on an 82).
