20. Is there a way to completely clear hardware memory?
Next to the personality module there is a switch that
slides to the side. On most consoles there is a little
window by the personality module opening. Move this
switch to the side while the power is off. Count to five and
move it back. This will bring the internal RAM to ground
clearing any information. The console will then boot up
with the factory defaults.
