HP 38G

Welcome to KTG's HP 38G graphics calculator page.





Here you will find files and programs(mainly games) for the 38G. To send them to your calculator you will need the appropriate cable and the Connectivity software(provided here, scroll down). Click "download" to download the .ZIP file. Screen shots coming soon.

IMPORTANT: i strongly recommend you read the text files that are included in the .ZIP files. They include important information regarding transferring and storing the programs on your calculator. Follow the instructions and you should have no problems, however...

i am not at all liable/responsible/accountable for any damages/problems/errors/malfunctions/nuclear wars that occur as a result of using these programs.
