My HP 35-S is blinking MEMORY CLEAR and I can't figure out how to stop it or fix the problem.  I don't want to erase my programs.  Can anyone help?

Thanks.

It is an HP 35s Scientific Calculator.  It is not a notebook.

Hi @MIkeT-1_HEI,

Thank you for your reply  Although calculators are outside of my expertise, I did locate this post from the HP Forum Archive 20. HP-35S hung in "Memory Clear" loop. Please let me know if the reset worked.
