• Compaq Presario CQ5110Y Desk: Change a computer fan

  Hello. My Compaq Presario desktop computer, product #KY821AA, is 7 years old and not under warranty. I have no technical expertise, but I don't change another fan in the computer, which was easy to access.

  In my view, that the fan in the computer case power supply area must be changed. It is making considerable noise on a regular basis, which it did not before. My questions are the following:

  (1) is there a link to a video or a website that could show me how to open the my computer power supply area (I already know how to open the case on the side of the computer)?

  (2) if I can get into the power supply area, I have to take the power supply on and bring it to a store to get a new or would it be easier to just replace the computer fan in the power supply area, which is the only reason why I want to go to the power supply area.

  Thank you.

  If you notice, the PSU (Power Supply Unit) in the PC is locked up in a case of steel mesh.

  There is a very good reason for it.  Inside of this case are capacitors that store a LOT of current, so that if you accidentally touch one, you could easily be electrocuted!  If not killed, you risk very severe electric burns.

  Leave the only PSU case and replace the power supply with a new - what is much safer.

  Good luck

• How to free up unused icons desk tops

  Hi, how can I release my programs office that I almost never use. Thank you paul.

  Hello

  Unlike Windows XP, Windows 7 or Vista, does not include a Desktop Cleanup Wizard, which has kept track of your use of the icons on your desktop and offered to remove the unused icons every 60 days.

  CleanDesktop is an application portable little freeware that helps you clean up your desktop icons not used in Windows 7 and Vista. This utility is for those who miss the wizard!

  On running it, it will scan & detect office items that have not been used within the last 30 days and and the list of people down. You then have an option to remove them.

  The unused items are not deleted but moved to a folder on the desktop, namely; C: \Users \username \Desktop \Unused icons. You can also cans also opt to remove unused items directly.

  Kind regards.

• Problems with Compaq Presario 5BW220 RAM

  This office is 8 years old and supposedly supports 512 MB memory SDRAM PC100.

  Recently, I worked on this for my son-in-law.  It came with 64 MB of SDRAM PC100 and Windows Millennium Edition.  I tried to install 2-256 MB memory SDRAM PC133 maximum amount supported RAM, but it refused to start.  I replaced every 256 MB module with a 128 MB PC100 module and managed to do start.  I expected to read 384, but he will read only 256 MB.  I had not all PC100 256 MB modules to use.  I finally installed modules from 2 to 128 MB PC100 and he left like that.

  I never had a problem in the past with an old desk accepting a combination of PC100 and PC133 modules, so it was a first for me.

  The Compaq Presario 5BW220 have a problem with the acceptance of this combination, and she actually says a maximum of 512 MB?

  This could be useful in the future:

  http://www.crucial.com/

  If you click "scan my system" he can tell you all sorts of things on the RAM.

  I have a system built home (with all the paperwork by moving the boxes...) who had a chip spoil.  I could not remember what RAM took it and I didn't go root through the boxes in the garage. =)

  Their scanning system could not see what kind of memory I had, but he told me exactly what my motherboard could support. (Type and max of 1 GB per slot)  He even suggested several configurations of memory.

  Once I saw what he said, he had, I remembered that I had bought before and it didn't fit.

• Compaq Presario sr1720 nx goes directly to the recovery & mouse & kyboard is unresponsive

  The compaq Presario sr1720nx is directly to the recovery even if I hit the F6 key or the escape key start-up of the pc to the top.  Once on the recovery screen, there are three choices that are not accessible because neither the keyboard nor the mouse respond.

  I may be the culprit of the problem.  I looked on the internet to perform a recovery without a disk.  The You tube video, said to use the F6 key at startup to access the recovery console.  This proved to be unsuccessful.  When the compaq starts, it says to hit the F8 key to start the recovery program.  None of them worked.

  So, being a non tech person, I went to programs > Accessories > microsoft tools > reset to an earlier date > and reset the start to the recovery console.  My goal was to access the recovery console to perform a destructive recovery.  This has been for us hopefully correct the Compaq, which had not been used for a long time.

  Before this action, there is no problem with the mouse or the keyboard.

  The end result was the computer starts up straight on the recovery console provides three choices.  It also provides choice to hit the return key to put an end to the valuation or escape to return to the normal operating system of windows XP.

  Initially, I tried to download the recovery disc for the Compaq back to ground zero.

  If all goes well, it still may be my option.  If anyone could be useful to a naive individual, it would be much appreciated.  As the saying goes, a little knowledge is a very dangerous thing.

  Distinguished regards, Mike

  I solved the problem

  I unplugged the computer, mouse and keyboard; WAITED several minutes and plugged the above items back in.  After you enable the Compaq, he went directly to the window of recovery.  Now, the keyboard has been active to select option 3 - the full recovery of the C: drive.  Of course, asked me to restart the computer to complete the process.

  The windows XP program has restarted after the computer has finished the recovery process.

  Starting with a blank slate, I was able to name the computer, the selection of the internet service provider, etc. in the usual way.

  I add this note anyone suffer a similar situation.

  I appreciate the response.

  Distinguished regards, Mike

• 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.

• Upgrade memory - Compaq Presario SR1630NX

  Planning the upgrade on my HP - Compaq Presario SR1630NX memory. Before buying a product of memory, I want to make sure it is compatible with the Compaq. Info on the Compaq Presario SR1630NX memory is as follows: 1) 512 MB (2 x 256) memory installed in the 4 slots 2 DIMM; (2) 2 4 DIMM slots open. (3) type of memory is 184 pins DDR SDRAM. It is a bit confusing when you try to sort the different products available memory. Identified the PNY Memory twin 2048 MB PC3200 DDR 400 MHz memory (2 x 1024MB), Model #MD2048KD1-400. Memory is this product compatible and recommended? Otherwise, any suggestions?

  Hello

  JJM says:
  I ordered the Crucial memory upgrade kit. Then will come the real installation. I'm a little tentative trying to change modules of memory because I've not done this before. Are there problems I should be aware of that I open the SR1630NX, find the motherboard and memory sticks, remove and install new?

  It's really very simple.

  All it takes is patience and attention to the location of the index in the module and the game inside the DIMM slot.

  Unplug the power connector from the power outlet.

  Open the case.

  touch something metal in the case with your hand to dissipate static electricity from your body. I actually always use an anti-static wristband.

  Press the tabs on each side of a module locking and it comes out.

  use the thumb and forefinger on each end of a module and remove it carefully.

  during the installation of the modules to place them in the same locations you deleted the 'old' of.

  Search the index of the module tab and the tab corresponding inside the ALS DIMMt.

  Use the slots on the inside and under the locking tabs guide to guide the module in the DIMM connector correctly

  now, use your thumbs to the top end of the module for shake it gently in the DIMM slot.

  you will know that it is in place as you feel / hear a click.

  now check to make sure that the locking tabs are in place at the ends of the module.

  Repeat the process with the other modules

  That's all there is to it.

  Kind regards

  ERICO
