• Compaq Presario CQ61-416SA: upgrade the Compaq CQ61 wireless card

  I have a Compaq Presario CQ61-416SA, running 64-bit Windows 7 application. The current wireless card only works on the 2.4 Ghz band and I want to upgrade to a dual band to get the best speed etc. to 5 GHz. I have an Intel Centrino N6230 of replacement card, but the phone will not accept anything other than the default map. At the start, it stops with an error message saying that it will not continue unless the "unauthorized device" is deleted. If I re - install the original wireless card, it starts and works very well, but this is not the point, I would like to update.

  I guess that the default is to lock the part of the BIOS of the laptop to prevent alteration unauthorized with laptop computers under warranty, but mine is well outside the guarantee.

  I know that the card works because I installed it in my laptop previous and I have been in electronics for 30 years and spent about 5 years of this repair of computers laptops, desktops, servers, etc so I'm sure that I am able to connect a card and the driver installation!

  There does anyone know a way around the block? I won't to be able to upgrade the laptop without it.

  Anyone?

  Do not completely blame HP, but it was little 1984 involving your federal Government. HP and Lenovo read a few Federal Communications Comm regs on the recording of radio portable wireless (including the computer wifi cards) to require that alternative cards are blocked. Other laptop makers has not agreed and now the 'white list' is history, but there is no effort to go back and make new BIOS for older models.

  HP wireless card versions have specific identification in the firmware looking for the HP whitelist before clearing the map to use if you use the version of HP. I looked pretty hard for a version of HP of the card and the one I linked is everything I could find. Google around and you can do better.

• Compaq Presario CQ61, unable to boot the laptop

  Compaq Presario CQ61 running Windows 7 Home Premium (build 7601) bought about 4 years ago.

  Computer failed to restart after a period of sleep.  I suspect that it doesn't have an automatic restart after automatic installation of an update - it's only a guess because I have no access to the computer at the moment, but I had a similar problem recently - on this occasion, I got a 'Safe Mode' start - by pressing F8 repeatedly gave me access to the appropriate screen.  I've implemented subsequently by restoring the system to a point just before a automatic installation of a critical Windows Update, and that seemed to do the trick.

  On this occasion the F8 route has no effect on the problem; the 'caps lock' and 'NumLock' continually of the blink just of LED (i.e. not a limited number of times), the fan starts, but there is no other sign of life.  I tried a hard restart, but without result.  I also removed and replaced memory, but once again no effect.

  Can you please advise.

  I'm so sorry I couldn't help you solve the problem, but maybe you could try to free the keyboard, nothing will happen if you do not lose the cpu and tight again. I know that the keyboard one is hard, persevering, best wishes.

• Compaq presario cq61: change the boot sequence

  I have 10 Windows upgrade on my compaq Presario cq61 free. I want to do a clean install of Windows 10. I downloaded the tool of Microsoft Media, made a key USB and DVD containing the clean install. I am told that the use of the flash player, I have to change the boot sequence in the bios. I tried everything from ESC, all numbers F and LED to try to enter the bios and all have failed. Told me that all I had to do with the DVD was just put it in and start the computer and the laptop would boot from the DVD and I could make my own installation from there. Which also failed. The only thing I have not tried is downgrade to Windows 7, affecting Windows 7 back to factory settings, then reinstall the free update of Windows 10. I would not have to go through all if I mostly because I bought the laptop from a friend and it was installed at the factory of Windows 7 and I don't got no disc software to the computer so I don't want to screw up and drop windows 7 without the appropriate software reinstall to match the product key.

  Any help to enter in the bios or advice that could help me reach my goal would be greatly appreciated.

  Hello

  Here are some other suggestions.

  1. start the machine in Windows 10.

  Open settings and select System.  Select food and sleep, and then click additional power settings - in the next window, click on "Choose what the power button" in the left pane.

  In the next window, click on "Change settings that are currently unavailable" (close), then Remove the check mark from the box against 'Turn on a quick start (recommended) '.  Click on the button Save the settings, and then close any open windows and stop the laptop by right clicking on the icon from the Start Menu, then select prompt (Admin) and click 'Yes' to the uac prompt.

  Type (or copy and paste) the following command (including spaces) and click Enter.

  Shutdown /s /t 0

  Tap on the ESC key as soon as you turn it on and see if it will now access the Start Menu.

  2 try to connect a keyboard external usb and see if this will allow you to access the Start Menu.

• Compaq Presario CQ61-313US: replacement of the CPU Compaq Presario CQ61-313US

  I have a laptop Compaq Presario CQ61-313US VM367UA #ABA that I am refurbishing and it must have replaced CPU. It comes stock with a CPU AMD Anthlon II M300 and I wonder if I can replace it with a CPU AMD Anthlon II M340 since they are the two socket S1, 35W TDP and they were released at the same time, so I think that the firmware should support two processors. I build that several desktop computers and laptops repaired but I traded not portable CPU oout before any info would be appreciated.

  I would say that you were right, because I have worked with several CQ61 CQ61 - 415st comes with this CPU.

• Compaq Presario CQ61: BSOD - memory management error

  Hello

  So, I have my other laptop, Compaq Presario CQ61. For like 5 or 6 months I had a lot of problems with it, like freezes, BSOD-s and not to forget that convenience store was down. I transferred all personal files on the external HARD disk and decided to reinstall Windows (7 - legal copy), hoping that the problem will be solved, but in vain. Finally, I installed Windows 8 Pro, because as said in the forums, people, it may be a problem with the installation disc. For like 4-5 days my HP laptop was running well, all the updates that are installed (haven't seen it lately), I just thought it was a miracle and my problem is solved. Today, he appeared. BSOD. After reinstall or to install both versions of Windows, I had, it is my belief that it is a hardware problem. I tried the memory management test and the result was something like "problems were found, contact your manufacturer. So my question is, is it a problem of RAM or a HARD drive? I've heard both versions, and if someone had in the past has the same symptoms as my laptop and he managed to cope, please enlighten me as well. Thanks in advance.

  Hi @Calin1 ,

  Thank you for visiting the Forums HP's Support and welcome. I looked in your question about your Compaq Presario CQ61 and works very well, and then get the BSOD and stop. I recommend to restore the default BIOS settings if you can get it to go to the screen. You could restore the BIOS with this document by selecting the reload the default BIOS settings. No restoration. Restore default BIOS is necessary because I think that this will solve the BSOD.

  Here is a link to solve the BSOD if the restoration of the BIOS does not help.

  If this does not help at the end of the document it tells you to do a test equipment.

  The hardware test indicates if any parts are missing or have problems.

  I hope this helps.

  Thank you.
