Calculators Troubleshooting TI-89 Connection to Windows 7 PC

AI Thread Summary
Connecting a TI-89 calculator to a Windows 7 computer can be problematic due to driver recognition issues with the TI Connect software. Users have reported that the software fails to recognize the calculator, likely due to missing drivers. It is recommended to download the latest version of TI Connect from the Texas Instruments website, ensuring compatibility with both 32-bit and 64-bit systems. If issues persist, uninstalling the old software before installing the new version may help. Additionally, for users with a 64-bit operating system, it is noted that Texas Instruments does not provide support for this configuration. An alternative software option, TiLP, is suggested for those facing difficulties with TI Connect.

Okay, so I'm trying to connect my TI-89 to my computer (I run windows 7 by the way) so I can put notefolio files on the calculator. I have the CD and usb that comes with the calculator, and used those to connect to the computer and download the TI connect software.

This is where the problems started, TI connect wouldn't recognize the software. I figured it was because there was no driver installed, but when I go to the driver files folder that comes with the TI connect software, my computer can't detect any drivers. Nor can it find them online, so my my computer doesn't recognize the calculator.

Please, does anybody know how I can get my TI-89 connected and working?

Thread 'Urgent: Physically repair - or bypass - power button on Asus laptop'
Asus Vivobook S14 flip. The power button is wrecked. Unable to turn it on AT ALL. We can get into how and why it got wrecked later, but suffice to say a kitchen knife was involved: These buttons do want to NOT come off, not like other lappies, where they can snap in and out. And they sure don't go back on. So, in the absence of a longer-term solution that might involve a replacement, is there any way I can activate the power button, like with a paperclip or wire or something? It looks...
