(1) size of maximum drive Compaq Presario 5304 BIOS? (2) updated BIOS available?

I have a desktop Compaq Presario 5304. She was made in May 1999 and gave good service. It's a Samsung CD-Master 32 - SCR-3232 model computer. The ROM bios I have now is 2a5img09. It works in Win 98

I would like to know 1) if there is an upgrade of the BIOS for a hard drive more and 2) that the maximum size of hard drive is for the 2a5img09 of the original BIOS.

Best regards, Bruce

Are the specifications of your DESKTOP COMPAQ PRESARIO 5304. There is no update of the BIOS listed on the download page of "software and drivers".

    Hello:

    Your laptop is probably the Atheros AR5007 wireless network adapter.

    If so (you can check by going to the Device Manager, expand network adapters device category to see the name and number of the model wireless network card), this driver installation normally solves this problem...

  • Compaq Presario SR1214NX desktop PC: update BIOS for SATA HDD?

    Hi CV Experts.

    In 2004, I bought a HP Compaq Presario SR1214NX desktop PC. Now, leave the original hard drive and I bought a new Seagate 500 GB SATA hard drive. I thought that this would work because the PC MoBo has two SATA connectors. After installation, I noticed the drive is not detected. I checked the BIOS but not hard listed. The installed BIOS is "BIOS Award BIOS Core Version 6.0 revision 3.10 26/07/2004.» What can I do? Is there a BIOS update available?

    Help, please!

    Do more research on this issue, I think that this motherboard may not have native support SATA. You can use ports SATA via Windows after you have installed the necessary drivers. I suggest that you add a primary as hard drive IDE PATA drive and load Windows. Post windows installation, install the necessary SATA drivers and plug the secondary drive SATA for use as a hard disk.

    I'm sorry for all of the early confused communications.

    Solved!

    The problem was with supply management power to the motherboard. I took it to a service person and he said it's a common problem with Compaq V6000 laptop /V3000 of the series... He solved the problem in 30 mins by replacing the chips... Too bad I spent several weeks on troubleshooting the problem myself.

    I hope that this post will help someone...

  • Compaq Presario CQ57: bios error 501

    What should I do to get rid of this problem?  Please help me someone.

    Welcome to the community of HP @ANAKONDA support,

    Thank you for joining on the HP's Support Forums! It is a great place to ask questions, find solutions and get help from others in the community! I read your post on the Forums of HP Support.

    I wanted to join you and help! I understand that you have a problem with an APPLICATION (501) BIOS ERROR on your Compaq Presario CQ57 laptop PC.

    Remove all USB devices. Disconnect all non-essential devices, because they can cause some problems.

    Try starting your laptop normally after having disconnected all. If that does not solve the problem, please continue with troubleshooting.

    The next step would be for you to try to restore the BIOS. You will see that the document says:

    If the BIOS of your laptop becomes corrupted, and a failure to upgrade the BIOS or damage caused by a virus, the computer can display all the following symptoms:

    • The computer displays the error message from the BIOS APPLICATION ERROR 501.

    After restoring the BIOS see if you can start the computer normally.

    Thank you for your participation in the Forums of HP where we want to help you as well as others who may encounter a similar problem that you have. Remember to mark this message as an acceptable Solution if it solves the problem for you.

  • Compaq Presario: Card mother SR5050NX update using SP37378.exe

    Help, I need an exe file to return the BIOS on my Compaq Presario, model SR5050NX, product number RX897AA-ABA, build software 72NAv3PrA2 to the specification of the manufacturer. The BIOs vendor is Phoeniz, release date: 20/04/2007, version of BIOs 5.17 string.

    I was updating the CPU so that I can install Windows 7 and I went to the website of Hp on the model SR5050NX and SP37378.exe.Seems downloaded and installed to give me version 5.23, however, when I rebooted the computer, I had the 'launch Startup Repair' which automatically said that he could not fix the CPU. I then use F11, Recovery Manager, who said "Detected Root Cause, current installation failure" great answer? Then, I used my Hardware Diagnostic Tools diagnostics bootable CD for Vista backup and reinstall all the software without result.

    Seems that SP37378.exe screwed up my computer, especially when the computer has worked fine before using the exe file.

    Logically, you would have downloaded the sp37378.exe on a CD and then run it from there. That would be the best avenue.   In addition, WIN7 is not supported with drivers HP on the SR5050nx.  This decision was made four years after the origin of the product Vista OS in 2007.

    You can virtually none of the PENRYN 45nm lithography processors put in it, the optimal processor, you can upgrade is the Intel core 2 duo t9500. I have the same laptop and I have the next step down from what is the Intel core 2 duo processor t9300. There is no complete list of the processors that it will support the lists that you will find are incomplete at best even Intel does not update their information. Go to intel.com and search PENRYN in a search more people you can use, you need to compare to ensure that.
