• HP Compaq nc8230 Notebook PC drivers for windows 7

  I can't find the HP Compaq nc8230 Notebook PC drivers for windows 7.  Vista listed but not win 7.  Help, please.

  Hello:

  Here's what you need to do to get the W7 to work on your laptop like HP can't not for W7.

  Use professional pilots of Vista support page and the driver of your laptop.

  Most of them will work fine with rare exceptions, and I'll give you the alternatives to use.

  For the graphics, you download and run the ATI file.  You will probably get an error not supported operating system.

  Conclusion of any windows error and go to Device Manager, click to expand the display of the maps section, and then click the standard VGA adapter. Click the driver tab click on Update driver.

  Select travel it my computer for the software method and find the folder of the driver that was created when you ran the file.

  Who will be in C:\SWSetup\sp34716. Make sure that the include subfolders is selected and the driver should install.

  Upon restart, your video should work fine.

  Now, here's where you need to go for a few other pilots:

  Use the Professional Windows Vista driver for the Texas Instruments computer card reader notebook nc6400. The vista support page and the driver of your PC is an older version, and while it will install, the card reader will not work.

  The one on page nc6400 is more recent and card reader works with the nc6400 driver.

  If you use the fingerprint sensor to log, and then use the Vista computer fingerprint sensor driver laptop 6910p and use the W7 software protect the 6910p Security Manager tools

  Use the W7 HP Wireless Assistant to the 6910p software

  Use the W7 Quick Launch Buttons to the 6910p driver.

  Then you should be ready.

  Run the windows update program once you connect to the internet, and WU can find more recent drivers for some of the hardware on your PC.

• HP Compaq nc8230 - cannot install graphics card

  My laptop was blue-screening, so Wednesday I formatted and reinstalled Windows. I don't have the original HP restore CD, so I downloaded the drivers from the HP support site. I have downloaded and run Intel Chipset Installation Utility (sp29371) and driver ATI video and control panel (sp33162). The chipset drivers seems to have executed correctly, but Windows has not detected new hardware. The video driver installation was not completed. He ended with a message stating, 'try to configure your graphics card with the standard VGA driver before executing the Installer'. Help, please!

• Questions about upgrading a Compaq Presario CQ5205Y desktop computer system

  Good evening

  I'm about to embark on my first serious upgrade of my computer, and I thought it would be a good idea to arrive before I get too far down the rabbit hole (and knocked out my Internet access).  What motivates the need to upgrade, it's that the system tends to lag when I programs using a lot of memory running and I think I can give him a decent boost on reasonably low budget.

  I have a desktop PC Compaq Presario CQ5205Y Win7-64 bit without modification until running.  I'm lookin to upgrade the CPU and the RAM of the machine.  For ease of reference, here is the page describing the system:

  http://h20000.www2.HP.com/bizsupport/TechSupport/document.jsp?objectID=c01859812&lang=en&cc=us&Conte...

  For the CPU, I found a good price on an AMD Phenom X 4 9750 2.4 GHz Quad-Core CPU (HD9750WCJ4BGH).  What I read, it meets the necessary criteria (socket AM2 + 95W, etc.).  I still need to determine if it needs a fan or non - language marketing indicates that it is not), but assuming that it works, here are my questions for this update:

  1 should I update the BIOS on the card, or change one of its parameters to recognize the new chip?

  2. with regard to the installation, I think that it's pretty simple - unlock/remove the Semprom LE-1300 that is there now, carefully align the new processor Phenom X 4 (Golden to golden triangle triangle) and tighten in place. Then, if necessary, install the fan/radiator.  Is this correct, or am I missing something important and potentially catastrophic?

  For the RAM, I have not bought, but I think I need barrettes 2x2gb DDR2 memory unbuffered, non - ECC memory.  I'm showing my ignorance here, but I imagine that rain is better in this case and is much better than the PC2-5300 memory PC2-6400.  If Yes, then maybe something like (or more affordable if I can find it):

  http://www.TigerDirect.com/applications/SearchTools/item-details.asp?EdpNo=6252562&CSID=_61

  Once again, a couple of very similar questions:

  1. do I need to change BIOS settings after I installed memory or if the automatic detection system?

  2. I swapped memory on other computers before so I guess that this motherboard is always the same - unclip/dethrone the existing memory, slide into the new and snap it in place.  Does this sound right?

  In my view, which covers everything I know, but if anyone has any other advice or warning indication, they would certainly be appreciated.

  Thanks in advance for help a beginner brave new waters.

  Processor:

  (1) no updated BIOS available for this model

  (2) more or less correct... you will need a HSF (heatsink & fan) for the new processor and a thermal paste. After the installation of the CPU, you apply the thermal is dedicated to the then install the HSF. The stock will be Sempron HSF to adapt and work but can not dissipate the extra heat

  (3) it is one of these models that will accept AM3 Athlon II and Phenom II CPU (see CPU upgrade in specs), but if it is supported depends on the revision of the motherboard and the BIOS version. Your choice of Phenom 9750 is a sure way to go

  Memory:

  (1) once again, no BIOS update available for this model

  (2) sounds right

  (3) you can look at Newegg.com best prices

• Compaq Presario CQ71 Ser: CNF01002QT model CQ71-4142F - Dead - no power supply - does not start - no led

  Hello *. *

  First time here...

  Compaq Presario Notebook Win7 32-bit - 4 GB DDR2, aged about 3 years?

  A customer brought this with virus / malware issues - arranged.

  On start-up, the bios made regular account that the HP OEM battery must renew. Not difficult technical question here.

  Powered on the laptop without the battery and the pc has stopped completely after a few seconds.  No beeps, no LED. Suspecting power, the original showed 19.* * volts. Ok.

  Bidirectional p - s for another check the jack plug connection. No change, tried jumping jack plug connection.

  Out two-way RAM for good, no change.
  Two-way 2032 battery of the bios for good, not change.
  Removed HARD drive, no change.

  Non-powered from DC or battery, depressed and button who was held for at least a minute, without change.

  The bios battery removed for 30 minutes, without change.

  Fan do not get stuck.

  No attached devices.

  Remarkable:

  Without battery : white DC power LED stays on for about 5 seconds. And then off.

  Old battery included: white DC power LED does not illuminate.

  I did not remove the optical drive, because I think it's ok. Works fine (or used to).

  I am familiar with this series of Presario laptops / laptops and while I have tried everything I know, I was wondering if, before I have conviction as having a short-circuit motherboard / failure, is there anything else I can try with this model of HP laptop before I am progressing with the send for repair of component.

  Thanks in advance

  With everything else has been tried, it does seem to be a hardware problem at the moment. It is more than likely isolated pay-per-view system, based on the symptoms. I'm sorry.

• Reuse of an old key on another PC Win7

  Hello, about 5 years ago, I bought a Compaq PC with Win7 preinstalled.

  I have improved since the PC to Win8.1

  I have a 2nd PC which is a Lenovo ThinkCenter, under Win XP, and I would like to upgrade to Win7.

  My question is... Can I use Win7 of Compaq product ID, to activate the installation on the 2nd PC?

  The product I.D. I have Compaq is intended, Windows 7, Home Premium OA.

  Sorry but no, you can't. The product key for your Compaq PC is a key OEM factory provided to use when you reinstall Windows 7 on your Compaq PC and cannot be used on another PC.

• Compaq 6715 b - upgrade to 802.11a/b/g/n or/AC

  I understand that I must pay attention to what network adapter I chose for this laptop (Compaq 6715 b, Win7) olde, but I have a nice 802.11ac new router and I would get this box using the pref/AC or less 802.11n.

  The current adapter is reported as PCI\VEN_14E4 & DEV_4312 & SUBSYS_1371103C & REV_02 (Broadcom Wireless 54bg,

  Broadcom wireless 1490 (dell))

  Which, if any, the adapter may seek this gearbox?

  Thanks in advance

  Hello:

  Here is the link to the service manual for your laptop.

  http://h20628.www2.HP.com/km-ext/kmcsdirect/emr_na-c02834030-1.PDF

  The only available for your model Wireless N card is the Broadcom adapter of abgn with the reference number used in the country where you live - 441530-001 or 002-441530.  (Chapter 3, p. 29-30).

  You can install a wireless card for your model (not the 6710 (b) and it must have the part number HP on it or it won't work.

  My recommendation is to do a search by the part number HP on eBay and get an opportunity but tested and functional.

• Synaptics touchpad - erratic cursor behavior

  On my Compaq Presario CQ56 (Win7 64 bit) sometimes, the cursor jumps around erratically, usually to the top of the screen that I try to move the cursor down. An external mouse, it works very well. I have the latest version of the driver (15.1.6.64), and I fiddled with the settings of control without result Panel. Sometimes it works fine and I tried to correlate the time that it is wrong with everything I do when this happens (for example if it happens after the laptop has been for a long time) but no luck so far (and in particular, it may happen now, I open the lid or after 10 hours of use). It makes no difference how hard or soft as I press, whose fingers are used, if the rest of my hand is far...

  I also discovered something interesting. In the device settings page, the edge Motion option is disabled. However, under region Motion edge there is a diagram that shows where your finger on the touchpad. Under normal circumstances, the position of the finger is correctly reported, and the mouse cursor also moves that I have spend my finger. When the cursor is wrong, touch the top of the touch pad shows that he thinks that my finger is down. Left and right movements are traced with some degree of accuracy. Because I move my finger down, it suddenly jumps to show that my finger is on the top. Put it down, and yet once it pops up. Meanwhile the mouse hardly moves at all, which seems to indicate that the driver don't is not the operating system to generate messages of mouse movement.

  Any ideas?

  In desperation I completely uninstalled the Synaptics driver, and I now have a touchpad that follows actually just my finger instead of developing its own ideas to dominate the world. It was a bit of a struggle to convince Windows 7 (which has also its own agenda to dominate the world) that I wanted to remove the driver completely, but now I'm using the mouse Microsoft PS - 2 vanilla driver has nothing fancy features which I never use and which seem only to lead to complications, Synaptics bug code and a lot of grief for their unwitting victims.

  Before I uninstalled the Synaptics driver, I continued my comments and noticed that the touchpad seems to work reliably after a restart, until I right click on it. I could imagine that, and I'm certainly not trying to confirm leaving a team of Synaptics software geniuses near my machine again for some time. Still, someone else could benefit from observation. You never know.

  Serve and enjoy, Synaptics.

• Photosmart 3100 series causes of program crashes

  I have an old HP Photosmart 3100 series printer that I have used for years. I recently installed in a Compaq HP refurbished win7 Pro. I downloaded the drivers, which I've done it before several times, but the printer will not work correctly. Whenever I turn on the printer, it automatically displays the 'test' page, which is used to align the cartridges. When I type something in any program (Wordpad or Open Office) text the text of program crashes. I did little to uninstall/reinstall, but the same thing happens. The printer IS set as the default printer

  Hi the casryjr8706, you can use the driver supplied with Windows 7.

• Partition recovery deleted and put in the form

  Hello

  I accidentally deleted the partition recovery of my compaq presario cq61 (win7 home premium 64 bit) while trying to install another operating system.  Before the accident, I got the drive C and drive D marked Recovery, now after you remove the other operating system I have the drive C and D of road marked as system.

  It is possible to recover this partition to backup an image I did before?

  Thank you

  Hi Michele,

  The recovery partition recovery is not otherwise likely to be a possibility with free software. The chances of restoring the windows backup is also pretty thin.

  If your brother's laptop is absolutely identical then use it is a viable solution to the problem.  If it is not the same, then it will be a waste of time that the Recovery Manager will refuse to work.

  The best option is to use a recovery disc that is designed especially for or created by your laptop. 30.00 $ is much cheaper than purachasing an operating system.

  You can save the partitions of current drive with a program like Paragon program I you provided a link to in a previous post. At least that way you'll have a reliable picture of the current situation on the hard drive of your laptop.

  You can also legally reinstall Windows using the Microsoft Windows license on the certificate of Authenticity on the bottom of your laptop.

  Best regards

• Presario CQ60 wireless services won't start does not automatically

  Hello

  The blue light does not turn on automatically when I start my laptop upward, which means that the wireless is turned on. I have to press the orange button until it turns blue and then the wireless works. Although not a major problem, it's awkward because it takes a few minutes for the wireless to kick and find the signal wi - fi etc.

  It's never happened before and I can only think it must be linked to me recently to get the card out wireless as part of the process of getting the fan to clear a jam. The wireless adapter has been connected back up ok because it does not start when you press the button, but I can't help but think that disconnection has energised it this problem, which means that it does not start automatically when the laptop is pulled up.

  I have a Compaq CQ60 running Win7 32 bit.

  Any help would be greatly appreciated - thanks in advance.

  Hello

  Try the following.

  Download and reinstall HP Wireless Assistant from the link below.

  http://ftp.HP.com/pub/SoftPaq/sp44501-45000/sp44700.exe

  When the installation is complete, restart the laptop.

  When windows rebooted, open the HP wireless Assistant, click the properties button, enter a tick against "Independent controls for wireless devices installed" and then click on the button "turn on all.
