Essentually the same thing happened to me except my linkport didn't die. I
installed FTerm b7 then pressed shift-on. The calculator froze with a message
at the top saying "Illigal instruction." I reset using the 2nd-grab-on thing
and sent fargo. got the normal 99% error. went into fargo, same error.
repeated this process with the one battery process. Still crashed when
loading Fargo. At a last resort I took out all the batteries and let the 92
sit there for a few hours. O loaded fargo and it worked. Does anyone know
what the hell happening on with fterm b7? I own ROM 1.4 and was using
PASSWORD.
