• About RAM compatibility...? HP Compaq Presario B2000

  Hello everyone,

  First of all please forgive me for my lameness...

  I have this old laptop that I use constantly up to now I have had NO problem/s which so than ever, except it requires upgrading memory, since it had 256 MB of memory when I bought it... I decided to update my ram at least 1 GB for my laptop to be more or less at par to the current requirements of modern software... Now my question is concerning the ram compatibility, I just wanted to ensure that the Rams are compatible since RAM DDR1 SODIMM are quite expensive compared to their DDR2 and DDR3 variants and once the Rams are purchased cannot be returned... more than info posted below...

  Laptop: COMPAQ Presario B2000 (model: REPLACEMENT-L07C)

  s/n: KRD43404JD

  p/n: PE972PA #AB0

  Service: B2028AP

  OS: Windows XP

  The only DDR1 SODIMM RAM available to my place where I live are:

  1. the TEAM Elite PC3200 DDR400 1 GB module

  2. TEAM Elite PC3200 DDR400 512 MB module

  Now my question:

  1 are those DDR1 PC3200 RAM compatible with the laptop?

  2. If these Rams are compatible should I expect (1module) 1 gb ddr400 or (2modules) 512 mb ddr400 RAM to achieve a system of 1 GB of ram?

  3. I know it sucks but where I am from RAM DDR1 SODIMM are kindda rare and very hard to find.

  Thank you that very very very much... and I hope to hear your words of wisdom... Thank you...

  You are the very welcome.

  I can't find anything on Crucial or Kingston of the site or the other, but I found this...

  http://www.upgradecomputermemory.com/RAM.cfm/memory/C/Compaq/Presario-notebook-memory/Presario-B-Series-notebook/Presario-B2000/

  It's showing that this notebook can take up to 2 GB of memory (2 x 1 GB PC-2700 memory).

  I don't know what to tell you. If it was me, I would buy only a single chip of 1 GB at a time to make sure it worked.

  This place says that their memory is also guaranteed to be compatible.

• Compaq Presario CQ50-139wm system restore disks required

  I have a laptop Compaq Presario CQ50-139wm.  The hard drive has been damaged without repair possible and I put a new hard drive in it, but I have system restore disks.  They are no longer available for purchase.  Anyone know where I can get a set?  The original operating system is Windows Vista.

  Hello:

  I don't see that HP has them.

  It would link to the recovery media to order on the Vista 32 bit laptop driver page.

  But can call HP and ask first. Maybe you can order them by phone and they would cost less ordering them to surgeons in the computer.

  If HP does no more, you can still get this provider on the link below.

• HP compaq presario cq60-215dx restore factory settings

  I am selling my computer compaq presario cq60-215dx laptop model and cannot figure out how to restore the factory settings. I tried a number of things... I pressed f9 to turn on the computer that has windows vista. Then I pressed ESC which lead me to the windows Boot Manager. It is said "to specify an advanced for this choice option, press f8." So I did and went up a list of the advanced startup options and 'repair your computer' is the one I clicked on because they say this option restores the system. Another menu came with the system recovery options, then I clicked on the full restoration of a windows PC with a description explaining that this will restore your entire server or personal computer from a backup image. I clicked on that and an error message came say that validates a backup location could not be found. Windows cannot find a backup on this computer. Set the backup hard drive or insert the final DVD of a backup set, then click Retry. What does that mean?

  Please, see performing a recovery of the system (Windows Vista) HP for instructions on performing a HP system on yyour computer recovery. If you have not created your HP recovery disks, you can do prior to the recovery. HP recovery disks are a Fail Safe incase something goes wrong.

• Ntkrnlmp.exe does not load on Compaq Presario SR1303WM

  Hello, all, someone please advise. I have a Compaq Presario, ~ 40 GB Hd, 256 MB of ram, Windows XP Home SP2. The user tells me it has fried, couple of blocking issues and freezes here and there, so I take it home to try reinstalling the operating system to factory.

  I save all the data for a value of savings and try a system restore just to see what is happening, so I chose to come back to a point in March. After the restore, I get a message "could not start bcause the file next is missing or corrupt: Windows\System32\Config\System" and information on the repair with the original installation CD. So next I go to the recovery console to start the relocation and get the message "Cannot load ntkrnlmp.exe" with an error code 7.

  I look online and see on resetting the Bios default and shooting of ACPI on the computer, can someone please advise on the place to go on this particular machine? I have also reinstalled the memory and upgraded to 512, still the same messages.

  I ordered the hp system recovery disks but the machine will not even read the first disk. It CAN read a Windows 98 boot disk, I can access the a: prompt and switch for fair c: and d:, readers will not read this disc. I tried another disc of restoration for a Compaq machine, but it was the wrong - he read and gave me a message "the system restore disks do not support this Compq PC model."

  All advice is appreciated. Thank you.

  Well, it sounds as if the recovery partition is no longer usable. Try to start at the C: prompt and format the drive. Type format C:, and then press ENTER. Allow to format and then try the disks.

• Compaq Presario CQ57: bios error 501

  What should I do to get rid of this problem?  Please help me someone.

  Welcome to the community of HP @ANAKONDA support,

  Thank you for joining on the HP's Support Forums! It is a great place to ask questions, find solutions and get help from others in the community! I read your post on the Forums of HP Support.

  I wanted to join you and help! I understand that you have a problem with an APPLICATION (501) BIOS ERROR on your Compaq Presario CQ57 laptop PC.

  Remove all USB devices. Disconnect all non-essential devices, because they can cause some problems.

  Try starting your laptop normally after having disconnected all. If that does not solve the problem, please continue with troubleshooting.

  The next step would be for you to try to restore the BIOS. You will see that the document says:

  If the BIOS of your laptop becomes corrupted, and a failure to upgrade the BIOS or damage caused by a virus, the computer can display all the following symptoms:

  • The computer displays the error message from the BIOS APPLICATION ERROR 501.

  After restoring the BIOS see if you can start the computer normally.

  Thank you for your participation in the Forums of HP where we want to help you as well as others who may encounter a similar problem that you have. Remember to mark this message as an acceptable Solution if it solves the problem for you.

• Problem with the Compaq Presario CQ60-216DX

  Hello, I'm having a problem with my NEW Compaq Presario CQ60-216DX mother. Every time it boots up vista and I run internet explorer, I get a strange blue screen which exports a file memory and reboots.

  I have the feeling that this might have been caused by a virus, but I can't do something, because Vista can't reformat long for some reason any.

  I tried a hard test in my motherboard and he said that there is something wrong with my hard drive.

  I don't know what is happening, right now I'm in safe mode trying to find viruses that Nod32 does not detect everything.

  Can someone tell me how I can get either the Windows XP Discs to work at startup (which, for some reason, they do not), or an alternative to a long format?

  Is there a way to fix this without reformatting? There's almost nothing on this laptop anyway so I'm always willing to do. A regular format has done nothing to solve the problem, I did it with Ubuntu and it did a quick format, but I had no problem with Ubuntu. Then I reinstall Vista and I am constantly having problems with a blue screen of death.

  Someone knows how to fix this?

  The Chemich does not exist

  If you want to do a reinstall of Vista then press F11 continuously during the boot upward. This will bring you in Recovery Options were you can choose to restore the system in the same State as when it was purchased. But if, as you suggested, is that a problem of hard drive reinstall won't help.

• Compaq Presario CQ5600F: upgrade to M2N68-(Narra6)

  Hello. I have a desktop PC Compaq Presario CQ5600F which took a power surge. I use Windows 10 Pro and I'd like to update the Pegatron M2N68-(Narra5) motherboard M2N68-(Narra6). I saw some of these for the sale of the mobo. Can someone point me in the right direction. I'm trying to find the drivers and perhaps installation information. The motherboards I've seen are either used, rebuilt, or "other nine" with no accessories.

  Hi @stan7926,

  Thank you for your participation in the Forums of HP Support! It is a great location to get resolutions and interact with experts from the community. I understand that you need information on an upgrade of the motherboard of your PC. I'll be happy to help you with this.

  A remarkable work was done by your little research on upgrading motherboard for your desktop PC before you post your question in the forums of HP. It's always a great pleasure to work with tech-savvy and technically customers sounds like you. Kudos to you for this. I am amazed at your technical skills and levels of technical knowledge.

  First of all, the specifications are very clear on the HP website. It supports "M2N68-(Narra5)" with the drivers, BIOS and other updates available on the HP Web site. About the upgrade to M2N68-(Narra6), it may be possible, but before you buy the product, I would suggest that you contact a technician on-site that this motherboard is not listed by HP as a compatible Web site.

  I thank you greatly for posting your question on the forums of HP and for giving us the platform to help you. You are a customer of HP and we greatly thank you for doing business with HP.

  It is important that you are having problems with the bios and driver incompatibilities on the motherboard and windows 10 Therefore, it is recommended that you contact a local technician and check the compatibility of the motherboard before making any attempt to improve it. We cannot have the bios for it and corresponding drivers. Once again, you will need to visit the websites of 3rd party hardware manufacturers to update the bios and other drivers.

  I hope this helps! Please let me know how it goes. If it helps, please mark this message as 'accept as a Solution. If you need help, let me know and I will gladly do everything I can to help. If you want to say 'Thank you' for my efforts help, click on the button 'Thumbs Up' to give me a Kudos. I really hope that the problem is solved without hassle and things work fine for you.

  Now carefully and have a great week ahead.

• Compaq Presario SR5518F last updated BIOS

  I have a Compaq Presario SR5518F PC desktop computer.  I plan on upgrading the processor Intel Pentium E up to an Intel Core 2 Duo processor.  I was told before in another thread on the compatibility of processor I need to download the latest update of the BIOS.  I downloaded the update to the BIOS shown on computer SR5518F driver downloads page, but what I want to know is, are there additional updates in addition to that found in the page/downloads of drivers for my S55518F computer?
  
  Any help would be appreciated.  Thank you!

  Yes, that's correct.

• 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: Revamp

  Hi all

  I'm looking for buy a new desktop HP, my Compaq presario, 5/6 year is very tired and needs a rest.

  My question is can I reorganize and adapt a new hard drive to it and perhaps speed up a bit, if possibal I would keep just to attach a slide scanner to, then とらんすふぁ the images to my new Pavilion 500-515na (when I get it).

  I'm not a computer tech and would like your advice.

  @RevJames

  On the page of support for your system: Compaq Presario CQ5231UK desktop PC it seems that it is supported for Windows Vista and Windows 7. There is no specific drivers for Windows XP.

  In this spirit, I would say that you look there: products HP - what happens if I do not see my operating system?

  If the device you are looking at using doesn't have drivers for Windows Vista or Windows 7, you may try and see if you can get it to work in compatibility mode. It may be an option.  Install and use Windows XP Mode in Windows 7 - windows.microsoft.com
