    Many people have maybe already said this, but the ERR: ARCHIVED issue is caused by the program being put into flash, not RAM. You can move it on-calculator by (from the top of my head, it's been 13 years) 2nd, +, 6, and navigating to the program and pressing Enter to remove the asterisk in front of it!
