Changed battery, all banks A and B , still there..however illegal ram message still showing but followed a pathway which advised save an init patch to A1, then turn off..Worked for me in this instance.

Surprised at that, actually! I thought A+B would be wiped as they are RAM banks. Maybe the circuit has a certain amount of capacitance.

All the other banks are Flash memory, so would've been ok.

Glad you got it fixed.

interesting! I passed on buying one of these today as I saw that message... we tried replacing the battery too, but still get that same message on boot up. I didn't try saving anything afterwards though... and it didn't show a message about saving a patch though.
