Here are some programs that help you using your calculator. From here you can also find the programs that are needed when using cable to link computer and calculator. If you are author of these programs, and you don't like the programs being here, just email me, and I'll do something about it.

If you want to link your calculator to your computer you need the FA-122 cable, and a communication program (FA-122 or Cas). Cable costs quite a much (about 100 USD), but you can make it your self if you want to. But that has it's own risks, becourse if the cable malfunctions it might toast the calculators memories. You can not plug the cable directly to the COM-port, it needs a chip. I don't know much about building these cables, but you can try the other pages.

The other cable is called SB-62, and it is used to link up two calculators, to transfer data, etc. I personally think that FA-122 is more important, becourse if you wanna copy programs, you can find more of them from internet, than other calculator. And if you want to copy other calculators data to another, you can always transfer the data from the first one to computer using FA-122, and then disconnect the calculator, and plug the another in, and then copy the data to it's memories.

From here you can download the Casio backround image. It should work with all the new Windows versions (95, 98 & NT). This package includes the backround image for 3 different resolutions: 640x480, 800x600 and 1024x768. Pictures use 32bit colors and they are in BMP-format, because that's the only format available for backround images.

The package also includes short explanation text (like this) and a small Casio logo in jpg-format. Maybe later I could expand this to an entire desktop theme.
