Broken screen, Presario CQ60-211DX

My child has left the computer with the cord wrapped around his leg. The computer fell off the table and display press the edge of a wooden chair on the way to the floor. Now, it looks like a broken window (a serrated line on screen) with bright colors as a screen above the line, black below. So basically, the display is physically destroyed.  Ruughly how much would a replacement cost of the screen, how would get us done, etc.? Or we'd better throw and buy a whole new machine? Or the warranty would cover it at all?

The computer is a laptop Presario CQ60-211DX he had for all of 6 weeks.

Thank you

The only guarantee that would cover it is a physical damage insurance. If you bought the guarantee improved by a retailer that coverage could apply, and I think that HP also offers only and you would remember if you bought because it's very very salty. The standard warranty doesn't cover any. Now, the repair. The price of the screens came down a bit in the last few years. Here is one on eBay for about $130:

screen from eBay $130

It's about the average price that we see now in $250 not too long.

I have not replaced a CQ60 screen but even the dv9000, his ancestor direct and very difficult to work on, was easy to manage for an amateur in replacing the screen. We can get you the service manual and maybe it's a 45-minute job. If you ever built a model as a kid, can turn a screwdriver carefully and can follow the plans, you can do it. Otherwise, the work is likely to be another $125 or more at a computer store. The best way to do this is to get the screen then start the call around for the best price and tell them that you already have the screen. You don't want to delete the old first of all that it is better to find the screen by the model of the screen rather than the model of the laptop because so many manufacturers now use the exact same screens so you can do a wider search. Once remove you the old one, you will see this is not too difficult to put the new one back in.

Even the worst $ 250 or so with work, it's much less expensive than a new laptop. Just don't let people tell you it's going to be $ 400 or more, which is heard.

  • Presario CQ60-211dx - upgrade CPU T3400; Update Flash?

    I have a Compaq Presario CQ60-211DX, that has a CPU Intel 585. After reading the forum, I bought a CPU T3400 as an upgrade. Do I need to Flash the BIOS? It is currently updated for the 585, but it will be different for theT3400? If so, I flash before or after you installed the new processor?

    Thank you very much!

    In 585, I assume you mean a Celeron. Here is the Service Manual:

    Manual

    You almost certainly have a GL40 chipset Board and the T3400 should be a quick replacement.  No need to do anything in the BIOS.

    The T3400 and the 585 have the same cache, run at the same speed. I don't know how much improvement you will achieve, but I guess that saw 2 cores can be worth.

    Hello!  My wife's cell phone can no longer pull a load of the power supply.  I tried different batteries and bricks of different powers.  Free of charge.  I want to try to replace the motherboard (thinking it is maybe the power supply is not working.)  Can someone tell me what is the correct model number for my motherboard?  I see many there to buy including 498462-001 and 501266-001.  Or the other of them are the right pair?

  • Compaitible processors for Compaq Presario CQ60-211DX

    So I plan to upgrade my processor computers for the delay I get (it's a single core Celeron 585 clocked at 2.16 ghz)

    Now I want to upgrade to an Intel Core 2 Duo clocked @ 2.00ghz (7300), that would be defienitly thrust my performance. It has the same socket but I'm not sure what bios go or if its going to work.

    I heard that this laptop supports this series 7xxx and nothing below or above. This is false.

    Thanks in advance

    Hello:

    Because your laptop with a celeron processor, it has the Intel GL40 chipset.

    This means that the best processor you can install is the Pentium T3400, because the GL 40 chipset can run than processors with front side bus to 667 MHz.

    My moms HD took a dump and I'll replace it and update the ram.  After defining and entry model information site, she came back with a couple different options.  He says that I can use PC2-5300 or PC2-6400.  The PC processor is a Celeron 585 2.6 single core with a 667 Mhz FB.  As I understand it, requires PC2-5300 667 Mhz FSB of the processor?  (This is what I guess I)  PC2-6400 runs at 800 Mhz FSB?  I just think?  And what advantage would I using the PC2-6400 on the 5300 with my current set in place?  He said that the two are compatible and they are at the same price.  Help, please.

    Thank you

    Ricky Brown

    Your a chipset GL40, which culminates in the DDR2-667. Also known under the name of PC2-5300 (same thing). So you can install DDR2-800, but it will run at the same speed that is 667 mhz DDR2-667. If they are both the same price get the DDR2-667. DDR2-800 is generally a bit more available and a little less money, believe it or not, but apparently not where you found it.

  • Questions of Compaq Presario CQ60 with restore settings factory, sticked on a blue screen (BSOD, no)

    Hello, I have to get my usual laptop fixed, so I decided to get out of my Presario CQ60, which I have not used in 4-5 years. The operating system is Windows Vista Basic and I want to perform a restore factory settings (I don't mind losing the data on it) and upgrade to Windows 7 Home Premium. So far I tried to do a restore to factory settings by pressing F11 several times to start, and I get to a screen that says "Windows loading files", which leads to a black screen. After what seems like a long time, a blue screen appears where I have control of my cursor (not the Blue Screen of Death) and nothing has changed since. I will update with any changes, because things seem to happen after letting it go for a while, but for now any suggestions on what to do? Let me know if I've left out any information. Thank you!

    Hello

    We can not help you with this problem of factory settings.

    Press F11 at STARTUP is the method that HP plans to use.

    http://h10025.www1.HP.com/ewfrf/wc/document?cc=us&LC=en&DLC=en&docName=c00809678#n405

    1. Turn off the computer if it is not already turned off.
    2. Disconnect any external devices such as printers, USB drives and memory cards.
    3. Turn on the computer and immediately press the F11 key several times , about once a second, until the Recovery Manager opens.
    4. In the Recovery Manager welcome screen, click Next .
    5. On the Microsoft System Restore screen, select No , and then click Next .
    6. On the System Recovery screen, select Yes , and then click Next to continue the recovery process.

    etc.

    And that is the recovery Partition and the process which they installed during the manufacturing process, not Microsoft HP

    You will need to contact HP or ask questions in the forums to Support HP about this problem.

  • I broke the screen on my presario cq60-218em, external display an option?

    Hello

    I have a Presario CQ60-218EM and I broke the screen! It will not display anything even if the laptop turns on again.

    Can I attach an external display (from my office) and view what should be on the screen to verify that everything works OK before I get the screen fixed?

    If possible how do I know my Presario to send the output to the external screen? It will work to display the BIOS also?

    Thank you

    Justin

    Yes you can connect an external monitor that is hard. Normally, you have to hold the function (fn) key and press the f key on the top of the keyboard that has a small picture of a screen on it - I think that its f4 on your keyboard. Once everything looks OK... your safe to buy a new laptop screen... or have professionally installed.

  • Problem with the Compaq Presario CQ60-216DX

    Hello, I'm having a problem with my NEW Compaq Presario CQ60-216DX mother. Every time it boots up vista and I run internet explorer, I get a strange blue screen which exports a file memory and reboots.

    I have the feeling that this might have been caused by a virus, but I can't do something, because Vista can't reformat long for some reason any.

    I tried a hard test in my motherboard and he said that there is something wrong with my hard drive.

    I don't know what is happening, right now I'm in safe mode trying to find viruses that Nod32 does not detect everything.

    Can someone tell me how I can get either the Windows XP Discs to work at startup (which, for some reason, they do not), or an alternative to a long format?

    Is there a way to fix this without reformatting? There's almost nothing on this laptop anyway so I'm always willing to do. A regular format has done nothing to solve the problem, I did it with Ubuntu and it did a quick format, but I had no problem with Ubuntu. Then I reinstall Vista and I am constantly having problems with a blue screen of death.

    Someone knows how to fix this?

    The Chemich does not exist

    If you want to do a reinstall of Vista then press F11 continuously during the boot upward. This will bring you in Recovery Options were you can choose to restore the system in the same State as when it was purchased. But if, as you suggested, is that a problem of hard drive reinstall won't help.

  • Keyboard on Compaq Presario CQ60 problem

    My daughter has a CQ60 notebook that was working fine this morning, but this afternoon the Q W E R U I O and P keys have stopped responding. I could check, all other keys are not affected. Any suggestion would be gratly appreciated.

    Before I / we assume that the keyboard is bad you need to reinstall the driver, that seems to never work, but we should give it a shot anyway. Go to the control panel and find the Device Manager. Click on that and find "Keyboard" in the list, click the small arrow to decompress. Right-click on the keyboard and choose to uninstall the driver, ignore the warning and continue. You will be prompted to restart the computer and start it will automatically reinstall the driver.

    http://h10032.www1.HP.com/CTG/manual/c02985882.PDF  Look on page 4-18 and a bit beyond. Be very careful when you remove the cable from the ZIF connector on the motherboard, if you break that he condemns the whole motherboard.

Give the page time video too load. Yours is very easy to remove, there are 3 screws marked with a symbol inside the battery bay keyboard that hold it in place and it throws just to go to the nearest rear of the screen.

    Once, you get to the video page, navigate to the keyboard in the left column.

    Note that it does not list the CQ60-200 series, but the 100 series is the same.

    You can also order the keyboard of HP once, you know the part number, it will be at the back of the keyboard ending with

  • Keyboard and trackpad which does not Compaq presario CQ60

    Help!

    My keyboard and trackpad on my Compaq Presario CQ60 laptop do not react and do not have external devices to see if it is an internal matter. Cannot restart in Mode safe as the keyboard is unresponsive, however it allows me to type my password to access vista! I think I just lock the computer, but do not know how unlock, various forums have specified relocation drivers etc, but I am unable to do this without functional keyboard and do not know how if I pressed a key combination that caused it. I don't know if it's a problem of Vista or Compaq/HP.

    Immensely from any help appreciated!

    as far as I know, if you can type your password on the login screen, then the keyboard works, if the problem appears after the connection or it will appear when you are on your desktop screen, it may be a problem of operating system or a problem with corruption of user account

    the keyboard would be a hardware failure, if when you turn on your nb, there will be no ligts on the keyboard will make the capslock key does not illuminate or does not at all as long as you turn on the nb

    for the touchpad, try to check if its or disable... If there is a light orange above the touch pad then sound off, toggle the switch the light to turn to blue...

    so before anything else... TRY THIS FIRST!

    1. remove the battery

    2 disconnect the power adapter

    3. no power supply at all, press in and hold the button for 1 min... Be sure that it will be 1 min...

    technically, we call this HARD RESET... This process would free electricity static that could be included on the power button spout these electrostatic charges sometimes causes harware malfunctionalities...

    then it this step does not work... do this...

    try to go into safe mode by continuously pressing F8 during startup (press F8 when you see the hp invent screen), then you will be directed to advance startup options... Choose last known good config... Then, it will boot to the last known good setting...

    Please let me know if this does not work...

    Otherwise, ' choose repair your computer "on the start options... Choose the American keyboard layout... so if asked for a user name and password, you can change the administrator username username and then put your password... If you do not use any password leave it blank... then choose Startup Repair...

    Please let me know if this does not work...

    I hope this helps...
