First, back up the contents of your calculator. It seems that sometimes
MLDL doesn't load properly.  When it does so the 48 says invlaid card
data and then clears the library.  Unfortuantely it never updates and
frees the memory the library used.  So so far the only cure I've heard of to
get your memory back is to save the entire contents of memory then hit the
dreaded ON-A-F and then load in your backup and restore.  This seems
to bring back the missing memory.

As for why it happened in the first place I don't know.  It happened to me
to but I found the copy on wanynes mail server worked fine...Go Figure :-)
