In a message dated 98-05-29 06:12:12 EDT, you write:

<< I disassembled the ROM, the interrupt handler is fixed in the code, it
makes
 a jump to the ON key interrupt handler routine. I did over 5 hours of
 disassebling and came to the conclusion there are no NMI's.. I have been
 reading some of the messages about interrupts by Jimmy Mardell and he also
 says "The TI-8x doesn't have any NMI's" and someone (maybe him) also says
 they haven't even seen a computer with an NMI >>

I remember reading in a x86 ASM book that the NMI on Intel processors was used
for some kind of hardware error (memory corruption?).
