Compaq CQ60-418DX boots with wireless off

My Compaq Presario CQ60-418DX (p/n VG674UAR #ABA) recently began to start up with wireless turned off. I need to push the button wireless (twice) to allow. It's a minor annoyance, but I'd appreciate any help you can offer.

  • dv2745se - problem! laptop starts with wireless off

    I've read other discussions about similar issues, but I'm not having the same problem as most of the people. When Windows starts my wireless light stays orange/orange, even if it is on. However, I can turn off my wireless manually and then turn it to in turn blue and knit. It is still listed in devices when I start my computer.

    The strange thing is when I restart my computer, Windows starts with the wireless work. However, the problem occurs only when the laptop is completely off and turned on and then later. I emailed HP Technical Support about the problem, but the steps that they have me pass by did not help.

    mgriffin,

    This may sound silly but often leave when people open their notebooks they are accidentally dragging the wireless switch.

    This is not the case with you is?

  • Qosmio f10 - 137 boot problems with wireless

    I bought the above my local PC World yesterday. Was to restore the system myself (only the demo model is available, do not have the time to wait for them to restore, so I accepted and ended up with 100 pounds).

    Anyway, the problem-it hangs during startup, when it reaches the Windows desktop but no icons, menu start, task bar etc. If the communication wireless off switch is turned on, it boots correctly (it will even complete the boot if you stop after that it crashes).

    The wireless works fine once started.

    Thank you

    Hello

    What demo was available?
    As far as I know that the Toshiba come with a recovery CD. In this case, you must only retrieve the device with this CD. As Miro said that if you got this unit with the recovery CD, the operating system should work without any problems.
    In addition, you can try to update the wireless driver.

    original title: no wireless network

    That's your problem.  You will need to determine which makes your wireless card, go to their website and download the latest driver for 64-bit Windows 7 32 0r according to your material.  If its inbult to your computer, visit vender of your computer (HP, Toshiba, etc) for the correct driver.

    is the AC adapter for example 463958-001 for compaq cq60 equipped with an output connector dual voltage? So I can't use the universal ac connectors?

    Your laptop will accept universal power adaptors, you just want just to make sure it's a 65-W AC adapter.

  • CQ60 drops Windows 7 wireless

    I have a CQ60. Since the day where I bought it with vista on it, I had problems with wireless. He drops the wireless randomly. It is not a hardware problem, I installed XP Pro above and it works flawlessly for months. I put Windows 7 32-bit on it and I have the problem again. All my Dell laptops with windows 7 work very well. So I know that is not a router problem. Raise us the problem at work, I discovered other people have the same problem with HP and Compaq. So this must be common. Does anyone know the fix?

  • No sound no issue on 64 bit versions of Windows 8 - Compaq CQ60 - 140EV

    Hello guys!

    I have the following problem after installation of 64-bit Windows 8:

    Independent of the version - home page, pro or business, on my Compaq CQ60 - 140EV speakers produce no sound, not even on the external speaker no sound. In Device Manager, everything seems to be ok. With all versions 32 bit Windows-8 or with previews of 64-bit version of W8-developer preview, overview of consumer sound etc work correctly. But with any details of Windows 8: home, pro or business there is no noise.

    I tried the following:

    Reinstall windows via USB, DVD - same issue, the installation drive in mode-same WIN7 compatibility question, installation driver followed problem update-even Microsoft, installation driver on the system to dual-boot (WIN8 and WIN7) - the computer find drive WIN7 and installed, but once again no sound. All other functions work fine except the sound. And the odd point is that the sound does not work only on the 64-bit version and only in the final version.

    Can you help me please to solve this problem?

    Thank you very much!

  • Tired of the problems with wireless in El Capitan

    Now before I type this I had the same EXACT issues with my Macbook Air and now they produce 11 "on my 15" Macbook Pro retina, material, it's an operating system is not matter because wireless worked well on Snow Leopard then began to occurring on the Mavericks and continued on El Capitan.

    The wireless on my Macbook Pro constantly cutting... it shows as connected, but then you lose the ability to connect to Web sites, email, etc... and the only way to bring it back is to turn wireless off and on.  If it gets too bad then I do the old SCM controller reset (turn off laptop, then shift + ctrl + option + power for five seconds, then power up) which solves the problem for a day or two and then it happens all over again.  My other devices (iPhone, iPad) do not have this problem and are always connected wirelessly without a problem.

    As I said I had the same issues on my Macbook Air and thought that maybe the Macbook Pro would be different, but obviously it has not been remedied in the Mavericks or El Capitan.  I certainly hope that Sierra solves this problem once and for all because I know there are a lot of other people in the same boat I am.  I love my Mac, and you saw my arm for me to get a Windows laptop.

    Bettier not to expect an upgrade of the operating system to solve a common problem. I'm not having problems with a Wi - Fi on El Capitan.

    If you have not yet tried, restart your modem router and internet Wi - Fi, and then restart your Mac (s) to test.

    If this does not help, it may be that network preferences are corrupted.

    Open the Finder. In the Finder menu bar, click go > go to folder

    Type or copy paste the following text:

    / Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration

    Click OK, and then move all files in the SystemConfiguration folder to the trash.

    Restart your Mac. See if that makes a difference.

    Your Mac will generate a new SystemConfiguration folder for you.

  • 24 b017c: 24 - b017c dual boot with Win7 possible?

    The b017c is capable of running WIN7 pro in anyway shape?

    I really need to do a system dual boot with WIN7 If Yes.  WIN10 is not be nice to some specific software Attorney that I need to have to work for a client. Win7 is the latest OS, this software is compatible with before an upgrade of expensive software can't be compatible with Win8 or higher (we're talking $1000-2000 range).

    I tried to install WIN7 on this computer after the partitioning of the disk space, and put out several settings in the bios (I had error btw), but WIN7 keeps hanging in the first screen after loading the drivers (language selection screen). Something happens where ports USB closing killing all connections to the mouse and keyboard. I have tried many changes in the bios settings and a retry of the WIN7 Installer (from an installation disc) but no dice.

    Is there a certain combination of settings that must be disabled in the bios to get the win7 Installer right or I'm screwed?

    Thanks for any help

    What an adventure!

    As you discovered, you must completely format the drive as one or the other (GPT or MBR).  You cannot format a GPT partition and the other in the MBR.

    I wonder if you had back and disabled the legacy mode, if W7 would let you install on the GPT - or partition if the disabling legacy mode would also have permitted secure boot.

    In any case, it's water under the bridge.

  • Problems with wireless on Equium M70

    Hi, I bought an Equium M70 2 weeks for use at home and I bought a Belkin wireless router to use with my broadband (blueyonder). When I arrived it is at home, I realized that the router wanted to connect my modem to my PC, but my PC is not a network adapter (modem is connected by USB). So I went on the Blueyonder site, and they said that I could connect using my cable box and their router. So, I bought the router to use with the set - top box. When I had last week, I plugged it up to the set - top box and the laptop found and connected with excellent signal strength. But when I went to use internet, it opens the pages. I set up the router manually but I always had the same problem, he picks up the wireless, but won't let me use internet.

    Then yesterday, for some reason any he said "wireless turned off, please switch on ', even if I had not turned off. So I tried to put off and then on again, but no joy, I ended up having to do a system restore so that it can work. Now, I was looking on here to see if anyone else had the same problems, saw someone mention by pressing Fn + F8 to go wireless and bluetooth, so I pressed this thought, it can open something, and he says to me now I have to new switch wireless off (I tried pressing once again, but nothing happens also putting the switch wireless does not work)

    If anyone knows
    a how to turn my wireless without doing a system restore.
    b why I get a wireless connection, but cannot use the internet.

    Any help would be much appreciated

    Hello Matt

    I use the Belkin F5D7230-4 wireless router and everything works perfectly. Which one you have?

    If you have the same or similar router, you can use a LAN and WLAN connection. You will find LAN port on the back of your laptop. If your router is configured correctly you should just use LAN cable, connect the unit to the router and start Internet explorer. As I have already said it will work only if the router is configured properly.

    I use the PPPoE connection. On this path that the IP address will be given by the ISP and it must be defined on your laptop to automatically.

    (a) start the WLAN with antenna WLAN switch
    -check if the wireless card is enabled in device or tool ConfigFree Manager

    (b) in my opinion you should check the settings of the router. If you want you can try to use the new Intel's WLAN driver. You can find it on http://downloadfinder.intel.com/scripts-df-external/Product_Filter.aspx?ProductID=1637&lang=eng

  • Satellite A300D-11 q issue with wireless network

    Hello!
    My Satellite A300D-11 q has a problem with wireless communication. It has all the necessary drivers for Win XP installed and connects to the wireless router properly. However, if Windows is hibernating or going on stand by, after waking up, the computer seems connected to the router but there is actually no internet and no matter what. It gets only OK after reboot. It's bad enough.

    Can anyone suggest how this can be corrected, if possible at all?

    I use Satellite A300 with WXP and Win7 (dual boot) and I don t have these problems.

    You can use combination of keys FN + F8 after stand-by mode to disable and enable the wireless network adapter check if the WIFI connection will be established?

    Hello everyone.  My computer is adjustable having the dual boot with Windows 7 Pro on disk 0 (320 GB SATA Seagate Barracuda 7200.11) and XP Pro disk 1 (40 GB SATA Samsung SP0411C). As the two systems are available at the start but most all the time Windows 7 Pro would use. The computer is Compaq 7100, WCL PP255US, 3.2 GHZ Intel Pentium 4, 3 GB of ram, Council ch h 0968, bios HP 78 1 v01.05 16/06/2004, chip Intel 915 G Express.  According to the website of Seagate Barracuda 320 GB with (quote), ' he not there no master/slave because every player relationship is considered to be a master in a relationship from point to point.» If two drives are connected to a Serial ATA host adapter, the host operating system considers that the two devices as if they were the two "masters" on two ports separated. Both drives behave as if they were device 0 (master) devices.  On the drive Samsung (SP0411C) I put a jumper for master, it is connected to the motherboard instead of disk 1. Used rider illustrated for Samsung SP0411N since I did not see the SP0411C listed. When selecting information for Samsung Seagate site sometimes showed data for their readers. This is perhaps due to the recent acquisition of Samsung or maybe my mistake.  Tried swapping around wiring of each drive but that didn't work of course. Looked at the settings in the BIOS but did not see a way to create the dual boot.  Please let me know if you need more information. If you know how this can be done or have some suggestions, please let me hear it. As always, thank you very much for your comments.

    Hello oscarmint, I checked the specifications of your system and it does not show the system supports two types of hard drives.

    The system supports only Serial ATA (Sata) synchronous Maximum 150 MB/s transfer rate

    You would need to make the jumper on the Seagate 320 GB Sata Drive pin, set at 150 MB/s.

    You are right that the Seagate would not Cable Select or slave settings and it would be the master and only on cable.

    If the 40 GB hard drive is a type of ATA (IDE), you'd better put as selection of cables (CS).
