Hello

My product is originally PC laptop Compaq Presario CQ40-327TU with Windows Vista Home edition.  Recently, I installed Windows 7 in my laptop on USB.  Installation went well, but it does not format the C drive.  I installed on the C drive, where Windows Vista installed previously.  After installation my laptop works very well.  Sometimes the screen turns white (black) and to come back after a few minutes and in the notification area it shows "display driver Intel Graphics Accelerator Drivers for Windows Vista (R) stopped responding and successfully recovered."like that, I get a notification.  In my information system, I cheked it presents Windows 7 OS.  It only happens when I switch to different windows or applications.  I checked the graphics cards in Device Manager and it shows ' Mobile Intel(r) 45 Express Chipset Family (Microsoft Corporation - WDDM 1.1).  When I tried to update the graphics card it already showed uptodate.  Can I wait for a solution to my problem here.   Also after the OS is installed, I found Windows.old folder on C drive.  Can I removed this file?

Thanks in advance.

Go into Device Manager, expand graphic cards by clicking the triangle to the left of the device. Windows 7 snipping tool to capture screen and post it here. Once you have done this, we will be able to see what is installed as your graphics card. You can also use the DXDIAG command in a command-line window to know who.

The following image shows some CQ40 notebooks have an AMD graphics cards installed. We need to see that you have.

Download and install the correct version of Windows 7 to the Intel Graphics Media acceleratormay solve the problem, if there is no discrete AMD card in your laptop.

It's the Windows 7 (64-bit) version of the driver

This is the version of Windows 7 (32 bit)

    Make your Vista recovery cd/DVDs if you have not yet discovered it here

    Your model should ICH9 sata driver sliptreamed in the installer CD of XP. If you did it right, you'll BSOD error.

    Use Nlite to sliptream ICH9 sata driver.
    A good guide for driver sata sliptream, here

    Note: do NOT use this guide sata driver, your sata driver is below ICH9.

    Some suggestions to avoid problems when installing XP:

    1 try NOT all wake sata drivers, use only ICH9--> ICH9M-E/M SATA AHCI Controller

    2. use of XP - SP2, much easier to use since many XP drivers were built based on XP - SP2.

    3 burn the installer of XP slowly and do not use the maximum speed, sometimes it create errors

    4. choose a reputable support CD, not the one at little cost.

  • which processors can take a motherboard supported very 4101p (494035-001) jal50 used on compaq presario cq40?

    I have a compaq presario cq40-142tu, with a celeron t1600 installed. I want to replace this with a faster processor but can't find a site that lists all the processors that are compatible with the motherboard, which is a worm of 4101P jal50 1 or 494035-001.  as the celeron t1600 has a front side bus at 667 mhz, I guess procies upgrade as possible would be a t7600 to better or at least a t5500, since these procies run at the fsb even.  any advice on where to find a list of processors supported for this motherboard would be much appreciated.

    It took some time, but I finally got my hands on a t5850.  Installed and it works like a charm! a celeron t1600 it is now on a core 2 duo procie.  also improved the hard disk in the series hitachi 160 GB 5400 RPM to a 640 GB 7200 RPM samsung. also changed the RAM of 2 GB (1x2Go) tech of micron for gskill 4 GB (2x2gb) RAM.  OS is win 7 ultimate 64-bit, standard was vista 32.  one thing I noticed, though. the Rams are running at 667 mhz even though they are valued at 800, and I have absolutely no idea on how to change this. Publication of the research on some more and I think that the jury can also support 800 mhz fsb procies, might try that also later on. So far I am very satisfied with the improvement. Oh, to be on the safe side, be sure to upgrade to the latest version of the bios. mine was initially f.14, not f66a. problem solved!

  • Compaq Presario CQ61 - 417SA Notebook PC Freeze issues

    Hello everyone

    I have a Compaq Presario CQ61 - 417SA Notebook PC running on Windows 7 Home Premium. The laptop freezes at random times, sometimes minutes after use or an hour after use. It does not result by clicking on a program or a file. I have printing freeze the problem may be caused by the failure of the hardware, possibly the HARD drive.

    Here are a few observations from the laptop and the things that I tried to diagnose or repair.

    • During a typical blocking the HDD LED light is always on
    • Also had the blue screen and freeze black screen
    • No error message
    • Hard disk becomes very hot
    • Entered the BIOS and run automatic test of the primary hard drive and memory Test using InsydeH20 Setup utility but it went together.
    • Laptop computer has been completely reset to factory settings so it is impossible due to the high utilization of the processor
    • Idle while the CPU usage is generally of the order of 13%-25%, with a peak of rare of 53%
    • The hard drive is a Western digital Scorpio Black 320 GB 2.5 "SATA

    The laptop is not used so wiping back to settings to original wasn't a problem, but I would like to return to a usable level.

    Thanks for any help you could offer

    Mike

    I was certain insistence autour in my computer and I'm done to restore back to factory settings. So far, it has not frozen and seems to work properly.

    I tried updating the BIOS with HP Support Assistant, but it does not work. Hoping to solve the problem I went online and updated my support Assistant. After this success, I then managed to download the BIOS from internet F.15 version I was also looking for. Everything seems to work quite fine at the moment, although there are a few updates to Windows that will not be installed. The progress bar shows the animation download but the installation hangs at 1 / 8. Some items are classified as "recommended" or "important" so any help with this problem would be immensely appreciated!

    I want to improve my windows 7 to windows 10 but the windows 10 driver is not available for my computer compaq presario cq40 604 - tx.when driver windows 10 laptop will be available for this laptop?

    I think that HP has released/posted drivers for all models that will be supported. All have support do not at this stage are not likely to see them.

    Windows 10 includes a large number of drivers for the hardware older - but no way to know for sure before the upgrade. I'd certainly do Windows 7 recovery discs before you perform the upgrade.

  • Improving RAM for Compaq Presario CQ40 - 144TU

    Hi team,

    I use a laptop Compaq Presario CQ40 - 144TU, Windows 7 32 bit. I want to upgrade RAM. But I don't know exactly what kind of RAM is suitable and the range of the RAM expansion (with the specification if possible). Please help me.

    I have attached the image of my report of PC "crucial.com.

    Is it possible for me to upgrade to 8 GB.

    Thanks in advance.

    Kind regards

    Santini

    Hello

    From the Crucial scan your machine accepts 8 GB of RAM and currently there only 2 GB in a slot, another beach is empty. Now, if you want to:

    (a) be upgraded to 4 GB if you want to keep the OS, you have to buy the 2 GB of Crucial, 32-bit

    (b) if you want to switch to 8 GB, no point (sorry my typos on my previous answer) to maintain 32-bit Windows. You can buy 2 x 4 GB, you also need 64-bit operating system and 32-bit to 64-bit are a clean install, not upgrade.

    Kind regards.

    I have a Compaq Presario CQ56-115DX laptop running on Windows 7. I wiped the hardrive without knowing what would happen, and now when I turn it on it has a black screen with a white dash flashes. I was wondering if there was a way to solve this problem.

    Thank you!

    Hello:

    You will need to order a set of recovery disks.

    http://support.HP.com/us-en/document/bph07143

    Or if you can read your Microsoft W7 product key you can make your own windows 7 installation disc.

    Here's how:

    If you can read the Microsoft windows 7 25-character product key, you can download simple Windows 7 ISO files to burn on a DVD for the version of windows that is installed on your PC, and which is listed on the Microsoft COA sticker on your PC case.

    Burn the ISO with the option to burn the ISO on your DVD burning program and burn it at the slowest possible speed that will allow your program. This will create a bootable DVD.

    Or use the installation of Windows 7 USB/DVD tool to compile the ISO file that you download from Digital River. Link and instructions below. You need a 4 GB flash drive to use the USB compilation method.

    http://www.microsoftstore.com/store/msstore/HTML/pbPage.Help_Win7_usbdvd_dwnTool

    Use 25 characters on the PC product key to activate the installation.

    The key will activate a 32 or 64 bit installation.

    Then go to the support of the PC and driver page to install the drivers you need.

    Link to downloads ISO of W7 is below.

    My laptop Compaq Presario 6604 to THE beginning to give a lot of problems in recent times. Every day, I spend a lot time on their fixation; no resolution anyway.

    Problem 1: BIOS hangs at startup

    Problem 2: If the MESSAGE is finished, Windows crashes at startup (Vista blocking at the mobile bar)

    Problem 3: for the last three days, CD/DVD-ROM does not.

    System configuration: CPU AMD Athlon X 2, 2 GB DDR 2 RAM (2 x 1 GB module). nForce Chipset MoBo, GoMobile GeForce 7150 Graphics Card 160 GB HDD. Windows Vista Home Basic (32 bit)

    BIOS hangs at the initial screen for 3-5 minutes. After 3-5 minutes, it goes to the next screen. Pressing only works key "ESC". I tried the BIOS flashed with the latest firmware (PRICE Phoenix F 32). Problem persists.

    What I tried:

    1 memory module checked. Tried different RAM module.

    2 checked hard drive for errors - Self Test passed.

    3 flashed the BIOS with the latest Firmware.

    Problem 2:

    What I tried:

    1. Startup Repair

    2. removed PCMCIA, 1394 driver files.

    3. system restore

    Problem 3:

    If CD/DVD disc problem is related to the two above, we can discuss it further. Otherwise, I'll look it up in other sections of the forum.

    Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance

    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...
