Compaq Presario SR5250NX Vista->; XP
If I had problems with my desktop computer and for some reason, I decided to downgrade to Vista, XP. The installation went fine, everything went smoothly, now are all that seems to require some drivers. I have a laptop which I use to make this post, any help would be great, maybe instead of links let me know what I need to do before I'm going to play with all sensitive bits. I'm decently well with computers, I want to just make sure I get the right drivers and installed correctly. I thank everyone and everything in advance to tide me over.
Also on a side note, my computer came stock with 1 GB of ram so I put two 1 gig sticks, the system uses them very well, but after that put them in a graphics card in my friend had sent me and everything installed perfectly, after a while I noticed that my computer crashes. Then it would pretty well whenever I went on youtube completely off and re - turn itself on, but ignore the message "you don't stop your computer properly... I since then he cleaned thouroughly as much as from dust ect and added a longer power ' not a high-powered I think its only 50 or 100 higher than the old, but he still loved to freeze. " I've been running without the video card about 12 hours, and it has not frozen or shut off yet, after that I installed the xp and others. So I hope maybe it was some bad files or something, even though I was not able to connect to my ethernet cable to test the way in which it manages the youtube.* *.

I suggest that you keep HP Imaging Device function (it is your scanner), HP's OCR software (it's also for scanning), Deskjet, Officejet, PSC, and HP Photosmart All-in-one-softwware, HP, HP Product Detection and update HP Solution Center.
The rest of the software should not be required and you should be able to remove it safely. If you have any questions about the specifics of the software please do not hesitate to ask.

I'm sure this has been asked before. I just installed Microsoft Security Essentials after the uninstall of a problem FREE AVAST ANTI VIRUS. PC is better/work order. But these daily updates of Microsoft are troubling. I have 103 Gig capacity hard drive with space of 'FREE' 69 Gig. And abandonment. I don't do very MUCH with the PC. Basic stuff. Account management. Look at Yahoo and Accuweather. Create a card. Messaging. My question is Microsoft updates daily use eventually the capacity of my hard disk? There are now 55 updates. When I ran Windows updates with the Defender, there were 4 or 5 important updates per week and I could choose the ones that I have no need of (I think). Your support of experts and orientation is a great help for me and I thank you in advance.
Hello

You MUST have these updates as Malware is written daily and definitions to help protect your computer should be the writtern and installed to protect your machine

Download updates but let me choose whether to install them - if you select this option, Windows will download the updates on your computer, but not install them automatically. If you want to install updates, then you must install them manually. You should only select this option if you have a reason to not install updates automatically. Only advanced users should use this option.
Check for updates but let me choose whether to download and install them - if you select this option, you'll be alerted when there are new updates available for download and install. You can then choose to download and install the updates that you want. This option should really be reserved for people who know exactly which updates they need, or those who have little access to the Internet.

Compaq Presario SR5130NX: Cannot start Windows Vista after failure - HELP!
Hello! My building has undergone a complete failure so 4 days ago I used it. Power resumed 3 hours later, but I was not able to log on since.
Normally, I turn on my PC, and about 30 seconds later, a window pops up asking you my password. After entering it, the PC come by my office. Now, when I turn on the PC, it brings me to a blue screen with a mouse cursor in the Center (which I can move), but there is nothing to click on.
When I press F8 during the boot process and choose an option from the window "Advanced Boot Options", I still can't start my computer normally.
Here's the "Advanced Boot Options" I tried, after consultation with my brother a little more PC-savvy:
1 repair your computer - after I see my black screen that is usual with the words "Microsoft Corporation" under the green bars that scroll from left to right for about 15 seconds, a blue screen appears with the mouse pointer in the Center (which I can move), but there is nothing to click on.
2 mode safe - while the PC display several files on start up and down, it stops on "Loaded: \windows\system32\drivers\disk.sys" for about 20 seconds, then proceeds to a black screen with the words "Safe Mode" in the 4 corners and the mouse cursor at the Center (which I can move), but there is nothing to click on.
3 safe mode with network - see "Safe Mode" above.
4 safe mode with command prompt - see 'Safe Mode' above.
5 last known good Configuration (Advanced) - see "repair your computer" above.
6 start Windows normally - see "Repair your computer" above.
7 debug mode - see "Repair your computer" above.
I downloaded a DVD recovery based on Linux in knopper.net, allowing me to access important files, which I copied from the desktop to an external hard drive (4.1 GB iso file).
PC Windows XP of my brother has a recovery disk, but my Windows Vista PC did not come with one. I've seen a few paid versions, but looked resources due to cool weather and free shipping.
I can't tell if I have the 23-bit or the 64 bit version of Windows Vista, so I downloaded both versions of an open source sourceforge.NET startup repair, which I burned on 2 DVDs. After you run the startup repair program using two DVD, the diagnostic results have been uploaded online at ubuntu.com for review and technical analysis. Here are the links:
http://Paste.Ubuntu.com/16018001/
http://Paste.Ubuntu.com/16019372/
http://Paste.Ubuntu.com/16040380/
The last report ended with the words "start managed to fix...". You can now restart your computer. "But I always encounter a blank screen (black or blue) when I try to log on to my PC.
Here are my details of PC, if it is useful:
Desktop Compaq Presario SR5130NX
Serial number: [personal information]
Product number: GC667AA
Warranty end date: October 5, 2013 (according to Compaq/HP.com)

Since you already have KNOPPIX I try Gparted and use it to 'clean up' the score because it will stop in an impure State.
NTFS
[1] [11] NTFS-3 g / important GParted will try.
Also, I would consider the old problem with fat systems, floppy disks etc. which sometimes a copy of sys files from a floppy disk to a hard drive has reactivated a bootable system.
So, if system files have been damaged, then replace them since a Setup disk. Because he goes to options, what kind of work.

Compaq Presario C731EM: Driver Atheros AR 5007 for Windows Vista
I'm trying to get a Compaq Presario C731EM running Vista connected to my router to talktalk. It seems to connect without access to the internet and that he lists as a network not only identified local operating. Many internet research it seems the Atheros driver would need to be updated to one on the 2010 that should work.
On the HP website when I list my model is for me a driver of 2008 with a reference 7.6.0.114. I've seen on this forum links to the drivers (which I access via a second computer), but when I go to the link I see not all drivers to use. How can I get a driver more later that works please?
Thank you in advance.
Hello:
You need this driver...
This package contains drivers for the supported Atheros Wireless LAN card in the laptop models running a supported operating system.

Hello everyone, I have a model old laptop (compaq presario F500 GF593UA #ABA) and I have complications download something on the net. Whenever I try to download something he always says that he stop working or the file has not been signed. Also, I can't update or the other - it downloads updates whenever it crashes while trying to install. Sometimes, it crashes as soon as the update reminder appears in the system tray. I tried almost everything imaginable, but I can't seem to stop crashing during updates are enabled. I can't download anything either, but I can run files that I downloaded from my other computer. I even disabled the pilots I thought that maybe something to do with it and still the same events occur. I disabled autuning, ran several diagnostics - one who says something about TC or something of this nature should be activated so I clicked on that and he says that the problem had been resolved. After I pedaled again power the machine, the same thing. Can someone please? I am running windows vista home basic 32-bit
