• Compaq Presario desktop XP-problems connecting / came with the settings and files of the previous owner

  My Director ex-chorale of the Church and his wife (was his computer) moved to Minnesota and gave me this Compaq Tower and the monitor speakers.  She cleaned me all of hers off the coast.  Well, she didn't.  She switched to the network connection and modem.  I'm low on memory.  Help support & the beginning, Compaq support and connections says "unable to connect to the server."  I have fast Internet with Comcast cable.  His modem is Gegere or something and the network connection is RealTek 97 Fast family and mine is Arris (modem).  Specifications of the computer:

  XP Edition family c. 2002 SP3

  Compaq Presario Intel inside Celeron (R)

  CPU 2.53 GHz

  248 MB of RAM

  CD player works but the DVD player does not open.  Connection is so slow that it takes 5-10 minutes to open anything.  IE8 gets constantly "stops responding."  Just like Firefox.  When you try to close a window or stop start, end the program box comes back and comes back again and again.

  Went to start-help & support-Compaq help and did some tests.  For Audio, etc. get: "Exception in DisplayRunMap.runmap.

  Only had this computer for 2 weeks and did nothing to save.  Can reinstall Norton Security Suite for Comcast and my Microsoft Professional 2007 from a cd.  Thought to do the system recovery.  This OS came with Compaq and recovery CD system recovery option and there is F - 10 System Recovery on initialize toward the top.  Are they the same?  I first have to install Windows XP on a bunch of CD?  Can't make a DVD if the drive does not open.  The button is loose and nothing happens.

  I am 63 and security social disability so can not afford a new computer, or to hire a technician.  Help, please!

• Compaq Presario CQ70 screen problems advice please

  Thank you, but I've now sorted. If anyone has this problem as it seems to happen for a lot of these models, all I had to do is take off the screen and theres a card below the screen theres a black wire with a white contector of this card that seemed to be attracted to the lifting up & down the screen. all I did was to pull the wire through which gives him a bit of slack to move and I recorded it down and everything was fine

  I hope this helps if someone falls on this problem

• Compaq Presario CQ61 wireless problem

  I use a PC Compaq Presario CQ61-411WM with Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit, and I am not able to connect to the internet, because the PC does not detect the available wireless networks. The HP wireless assistant reported that the wireless device is disabled in the Device Manager. However, when I check the device under network adapters Manager, Realtek PCIe FE Family Controller does not display an error or a problem. I'm really very happy for any help with this. Thank you.

  Hello:

  Well, the only thing I can think of to confirm that your wireless card did or didn't die is to go into your BIOS by pressing F10 at HP welcome screen and see if there is a configuration menu of devices and make sure that your wireless adapter is displayed.

  If it does not appear, make sure that the setting is set to enabled.

  If it is not, then I guess that the card is completely broken.

  If it is listed and enabled in the BIOS, then you have a major software problem and my solution would be to save all the files you want to keep and perform a system recovery.

• Upgrade memory of PC Compaq Presario SR2177CL Desktop problem

  I have a Compaq Presario SR2177CL desktop PC.  I checked the specifications of the product on the HP site and this is what it says for the record:

  Memory

   

  Attributes Installed memory 1 GB Maximum allowed 4 GB * (4 x 1 GB)
  * Actual available memory may be less

  Speed supported PC2-4200 MB/sec Type 240 pin DDR2 SDRAM

  I went to newegg and purchased:

  CORSAIR ValueSelect 2 GB (2 x 1 GB) 240-pin DDR2 SDRAM DDR2 533 (PC2 4200) Dual Channel Kit Desktop Me...

  When I put the pair of DIMMs in the pc, it won't post more.  The screen is still asleep and I never see the bios screen, I can't go in the bios configuration, or whatever it is.  As soon as I remove the pair, it works again.  The PC came with 2 512 MB DIMM in the slot 1 and 2, so I tried to delete those and replacing them with the pair I bought and got the same results.  I buy the bad memory?  I see it should work.

  Thanks in advance for any help and ideas.

  Finally!  I decided to try the suggested crucial.com memory, I went to the city and found in the store of the local computer.  It is plugged in and it works like a charm.  NewEgg gave me a credit on the memory of others when I called them, so everything worked.

  Press the power button and then press the F10 key to access the BIOS. Run the hard drive Diagnostics. What I saw in my investigation shows it's a 160 GB SATA hard drive.

  There are a few ways that you can use to solve the problem.  You can try the online scanner of ESET.com to remove the offending code or you can try Malwarebytes. MalwareBytes is recommended by some members of the forum, and there is a free version. The ESET online scanner is also free. I prefer the ESET online scanner.

  The simpler but more radical solution would be to make a recovery to factory state using the HP Recovery Manager. You should be able to access the market with the F11 key recovery manager. If this isn't the case, you can use your set of recovery disks. The downside of the HP recovery solution is that you will lose all data and programs you have on your laptop. advantage is that everything works again once you have installed the drivers.

• Compaq Presario CQ56: a problem with the computer keyboard laptop presario CQ56

  All keys (F) Act as the FN key is been held down when it is not. This just started today. I have a free prog called "keyboard test utility. Now, I have discovered that I can get 1 clean tap of F4 and the prog to test keyboard shows only illuminated F4. The next time I hit the letter (P) F4 and the Windows key are lit. Now, if I tap the FN key, and then press the F4 key. Again, F4 is the only 1 who turned on the prog of test. It's almost like the FN button nosed. I just to confirm. Rather than hold down the FN key to get things under the keys (F) (as a volume-, volume +, cut and so on). Now, I have to hold down the FN key to get the regular F1 to F12 keys. The rest of the keyboard is fine. A regular toggle switch or a switch in a radio push button. The FN key acts like someone ripped the wires to the back of the switch and reverse the wires and the switch can operate in reverse. Beats me how this can happen to a laptop keyboard.

• HP Compaq Presario CQ60-615DX: problems of the screen and the cursor

  Hi - I'm not a sophisticated computer user! This problem has been occurring for about a week - intermittently. When I move the screen of my laptop forward or backward - it turns off and I see no longer the desktop icons. It takes awhile to several push and pull to get things working again on the right. Second problem is this: when I use the mouse and place the cursor on the icon to open something - nothing happens. I can not click. I can't even move the mouse to make a reboot - I end up having to press the button and wait until it to power down. When I turn it back on - sometimes it is fine and other, the same thing happens. My battery is exhausted or do I here some real problems? Help would be appreciated. Thanks, LdyBGood

  Welcome to the Community Forum of HP.

  You certainly have a hardware problem.

  There are threads of connection - small wires that connect the display to the rest of the computer which can be crushed, loose or disconnected.  Damage or disconnect can happen anywhere: from one of the ends of the connection point on the map of the computer where all the components most lies along the son in the hinge area - where the wires could be crushed - at the other end of the wires where they connect to the components in the display screen, antennas, webcam microphone or radio, wireless, or other components.  This damage can occur at any time to any computer age.

  It's sad.

  If the problem is broken wires, the situation is not hopeless: the good news is that such problem is not generally expensive to correct is not a death knell for a healthy computer.  In other words, it may be useful to have the computer by a qualified professional and trust.

  You can call HP, or you can take the computer to the local House of reliable repair.  The problem can usually be quickly diagnosed by a qualifed technician once that he / she can see the computer.

  You should, while you can backup your data to an external location.

  You should, while you can, save your most sensitive to a second external location data - say a USB key so that you can - if you need it - put these data on another computer while this computer are fixed.

  If you have an account of cloud, it is one that you can back up your data.  If you have a SIN - and you know what it is, you can back up your data to that.  If you can afford to buy a small drive external backup of your E-store, you can use it.

  Dragon tips

  • If you decide to take your computer to a local store OR if you decide to send your computer for repair, remove your most personal data and critics of the computer.  Do not quibble about "it's hard to do," just get the data on the computer after you are sure it is saved.  Do not give foreigners access to your private data.  If you don't know what you're doing: a friend for you help with backups.
  • Don't be fooled a method of data backup.  A backup is not enough - a backup is like locking the front door of your House and leave the door open.

  You can always call HP for help.

  Know that you can call HP to organize the computer to send to HP for repair, regardless of the status of the guarantee.  There is an extra charge for the service.  HP will take good care of the computer and will organize the details with you when you call.

• driver Compaq Presario CQ60 wireless problems

  I just reinstalled Windows Vista computer and now the Wlan driver is missing and I can't access Internet with this computer.  He said only I can access via services to broadband.   However, I am sure that it doesn't have the ability to access wireless because I had no problem in the past.   Unfortunately, I don't have the CD with the driver software to install, so I have to use another computer to download it and then transfer the driver software.

  Should what software I use?

• Compaq presario 5000us memory problem

  I am new to this post and try to help a child of 14 years to get his 1 pc. I realize that I shouldn't be wasteing my time with this machine, but he got it from someone and I said that I would be put in place. The problem is its supposed to support 768 total memory, I have 3 kingstons 128 meg, but there only see 128 and complains about 164 memory size error and error 201-memory 08000000B 3. I went into the bios (which well see MB 384) and saved the changes, but still no errors. I loaded xp and he sees also only 128 meg. Any suggestions?  Thanks in advance.

  Thanks for your reply, I solved the problem, believe it or not, he seems to have been little dust on the top of the dimm support, I cleaned it took it off and no more complaints. It wasn't inside the slot, he was on the top of the slot. Thanks again for your answers to my question.

• Compaq presario SR1917Cl, collection problem

  Not sure that it happened, but after I log on the system, I have no start bar or icons. I tried the system restore, but it won't work. I tried system recovery now and get the following message: could not load the c:rninit\system32\res256\radio.bmp bitmap. . Is it in any case to fix this, so that a system restore or system recovery is possible?

  How you try to recover the computer. If you are using a CD/DVD media, they can become dirty or scratched. If it is dirty, clean... so scratched disks, try a car soft "plastic safe" paste polishing and try to reduce imperfections. If nothing helps, it may be time to order a series of recovery of the third party provider ComputerSurgeons.com disks

  I have a presario CQ56 with Realtek PCIe FE Family Controller network adapter. Hardware ID is PCI\VEN_10EC & DEV_8136 & SUBSYS_1605103C & REV_02 and I downloaded and installed all types of drivers, nothing works. Help, please!

  Thank you

  Hello:

  You must first install the driver from chipset for your model (Please provide full model # of your CQ56) and reboot.

  Then install the Realtek ethernet driver.

  In reference to your private message, is the driver you need for the wireless card.

  Hey there,

  during one of our new buildings on a computer of customers, (new installation of Windows XP Media Center Edition) we had the problem of not being able to get a driver. Generally we can put the hardware ID in google and it is, but this one's a doozie! After spending several hours on 2 h 'should be' work, I gave up. In the hope of you can beautiful personal HP help me like you did in the past

  This is the link that I had received all the other drivers, http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareList?os=228&lc=en&dlc=zh-hant&cc=nz&product=3282968&dest _...

  PS, if you can teach me how you really get ' difficult to find some "pilots who would be amazing, but if it's too difficult to explain so don't you worry I'll be passed satisfied with just the pilot.

  Good luck!

  This device can be more trouble than what it's worth because it changes the behavior of management power. Install the driver null instead. This is for Vista and Win 7. I hope that it also installs on XP. Good luck.
