Mark, Thanks for the reply, and sorry I forgot to include some more details I have results from 2 memory scans (the values may be a bit off from each other (i.e. starting addresses, but that is becuase they are from 2 times I ran it, and I (...)

(...) <snip> (...) <snip> (...) <snip> I didn't have time to mention this in my earlier post, but this memory dump points out a potential problem with the way BrickOS allocates memory for programs. In the above memory dump, the 0x6B words at 0xB648 (...) (21 years ago, 11-Dec-03, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
