The serial number is L-####AC So im assuming that the hardware revision would be AC or C I hope this helps and thank you for telling me how to find it.

Hmm I'm not finding info on revision AC out of curiosity what are the numbers in that #### and how old is the calc. The #### is a date code and I'm wondering how new it is.

Caleb Keatts:
I got the calculator last year and the numbers are 0218 so February 2018 I'm guessing.
It's one of the newer ones with 48k of ram instead of 128k.


Also in case it's helpful the basic works it's just that you can't see what it's displaying if I put
10 print "hi"
20 goto 10
Run
The display will fill up with garbage along the left hand side and will have they place where it's trying to put a character before it scrolls up.

Edit (Eeems): Merged double post

(We prefer you to edit your post as opposed to "double posting.")

It still seems to me like it is the software trying to write too quickly to the LCD, but that is usually fixed by ALCDFIX. Maybe TI started using a different LCD .__.
