CHALLENGE! How to reset my calculator!!

    Hey all techies out there - I'm hoping you can help me.

    I've got a load of HP48GX scientific graphing calculators that I am trying to sell on eBay. They used to be the brains in a survey kiosk we rented to clients an age ago and have the survey software hardwired into them?

    Thing is that I cant get rid of it - I've tried everything that I can find on a few websites and nothing seems to work? And I can't really sell them with the software on them.

    Any advice is gratefully received. In fact, if you can provide me with a solution to clear the memory and effectively factory reset them, I'll send you one as a thank you! :D

    # If that fails, you should still be able to induce a complete memory reset by removing your batteries and pressing ON several dozen times. This will drain the capacitor that stores information when the batteries are removed, and you should get a "Try to Recover Memory?" prompt if you have pressed ON enough times to reset your calculator. If this doesn't work you can try taking the batteries out for a few hours and then putting them back again. You should definitely try this method before even considering the next step!
