but perhaps I can shed some light on the cause.
My poor RCX got amnesia after receiving a severe mechanical agitation
resulting from the catastrophic failure of a two-legged walker. Since then,
it seems that if I place the RCX under stress or mess with the battery cover
I risk bringing on another bout of 'amnesia'. I'd assumed that I'd loosened
a battery terminal, but I've yet to get too frustrated with the situation to
try and fix it.
I wonder if Lego will offer a 'repair' service at a reasonable price. I'm
sure with all those robots bangin' into walls and such, there would be a
demand for it.
