Compaq Presario V2000T monitor wants to 'squish' everything.

I just had to restart the whole system and lost all my saved documents. Now, I'll have to redo everything. I'm having a problem with the monitor or the screen, in which everything seems to "crushed".  I was wondering if there is another monitor that I can download or somehow I could get a few other resolutions, or something.  There must be something I can do to make it better.  Thank you.

Hi Mayflower8890,

Thank you for visiting the Forums HP's Support and welcome. I read your thread on your notebook Compaq Presario V2000T and duty to change the display settings. Here is a link to change the display settings.

I hope this helps.

Thank you.

  • Compaq Presario SR1739UK update

    I have a Compaq Presario SR1739UK I want to upgrade the RAM, graphics card and processor so that in series Windows 7 much more quickly than he is and get all the features of Windows 8 (except touch, of course). It's my kids PC, so while I want them to do well enough, it will not be used for the online games or something like that, especially it will be used for web browsing and streaming of media through media library, so I don't want to spend a lot of money. Before I go ahead and buy all the parts I wanted to check that I can do and if there are traps I need to know.

    RAM

    It's easy, I replace just the existing cards to 2 x 512 MB with 2 x 1 GB cards

    Graphics

    This PC has an ATI Radeon Express chipset built in. I understand that I can not remove it, but I should be able to add a graphics card on the PCI or PCI - E slots right? Any recommendations on a good replacement? He didn't need to make amazing graphics of games or something like that, but it would be nice if it could handle Aero in Windows 7 and Windows 8 multi-tasking and don't want to spend ridiculous money - up to £50 or £60 I guess. Also should I upgrade the PSU?

    Processor

    It is the delicate issue. This PC has an Asteropi-GL8E motherboard with a Pentium 4 processor and looking at specifications supported on the HP site, it seems that it is only expandable to Intel Pentium D820 or D900, which are abandoned. Can anyone tell if I can use a more modern processor, ideally bicoeur with a bit more ooomph and if so what models?

    Any advice you can provide would be greatly appreciated, especially around the issue of the processor.

    Hello:

    Only, you would be able to upgrade to one of the Pentium D 9xx processors. You can find a decent supply of sell them (used, but tested and functional) in ebay.

    So you can go for the max - 945. I would like to get the one with sSpec SL9QQ.

    http://www.eBay.co.UK/SCH/Intel-CPUs-/14293/i.html?CPU%2520Manufacturer=Intel&LH_BIN=1&_nkw=Pentium%20D%20945&_clu=2&_dmpt=UK_Motherboards_CPUs&_fcid=3&_localstpos=&_sc=1&_sop=15&_stpos=&GBR=1

    Video: I need to know what the power supply, but for me a sure bet would be an opportunity but tested and functional ATI Radeon HD 2400 PCi Express video card.

    The Dell card will work in your RESUME.  You will need a cable of the monitor or DVI adapter DVI / VGA, because it has only a DVI offline. It has a S-video out to TV connection, but most of the monitors is not a S-Video input

    This card has two DVI and VGA ports.

    I prefer fanless cards because they are silent and without fan out.

    But it is up to you.

    This path allows you to save a lot of money, and you get a pretty powerful PC.

    If your already has a DVD player (as the specs say) then check ribbon cable that is attached to the back of the drive.  If there is an extra connector on this tablecloth, there you go.  If it doesn't have the additional connection plug, you will need to buy a new cable in water with two connectors on it.  Be sure to get what they call a tablecloth of 80 drivers.  When you install the new cable, make sure the existing device is 'Master' and the new DVD player is the "slave".

  • Compaq Presario 2034NX. N power supply video card update

    I have a Compaq Presario 2034NX and want to get an upgrade of the installed video card (for a HDMI output, etc.).  I know that I have to spend my diet as well, for new power requirements.

    I am interested in (after-sales) part 3 parts, not "genuine HP/Compaq", to save costs on this box of 7 year and longer.

    (A) what version of PCI-Express is the slot on the MBoard?

    (B) what form of power factor should be purchased for?  ATX?  12V?

    (C) is there a special condition of type MOE for video work in Compaq Presario PCI-Express slot card, or will more 3rd party (after-sales) cards work?

    Thank you!

    Hello

    Is the Compaq Presario PC?  If Yes, then put a standard size ATX power supply will work as well as several video cards PCI-E x 16.

    Most of NVIDIA video cards require a minimum of a 300 Watt power supply.  Most of ATI video cards require a power supply of + 400 watt mimium.

    1 HP didn't post the version of PCI-E slot, but I suspect 1.x. It should support most of the cards PCI-E 2.0 with a few exceptions.

    2. a stand size ATX power supply will fit (5.5x3.4x5.9).

    3. the video card chosen must be associated with a power supply to support its power requirements.

    How much budget do you see for the video card and the power suppy.  You have special requirements of video connection? (HDMI, DVI, VGA)  What applications are you planning to use with the new video card?

    Open your PC and a few measurement in parallel with the PCI-E x 16 slot to see how long of a video card will fit. The adjacent slot on the PCI-E x 16 slot must be vacant if a larger video card is being considered. Look at the motherboard, and ensures that the components on the motherboard will not interfere with the installation of the video card.

  • Compaq Presario A900: erase hard drive

    We have a Compaq Presario A900 - we want to wipe the hard drive and start over with an installation of Windows 10.

    Could you please tell us the steps to do so.  Thank you.

    KatMc

    Please provide information about the product.

    I was hoping that there was at least HP Win7 drivers for your PC, allowing you to switch to Win7 and try the upgrade to Win10.

    But to control your model, the latest HP drivers are for Vista.

    Which practically excludes the upgrade of your PC at Win10.

  • Best graphics card for two monitors to Compaq Presario SR5610F

    I have a Compaq Presario SR5610F.  I want to upgrade the video card, so I can run two monitors.  What is the lowest card cost that is compatible with this machine?  The computer has the PCI Express Slot.  It has only a power of 250W.  There is a card that can be purchased to upgrade the memory of 256 MB card, run two monitors and I must not change the power supply?  I have a high-end gaming card.

    Thank you

    MJCSJC1

    Are what video connectors your monitors supported?  Most of the low-end cards have vga and DVI connectors, you should swing $30-$60.  If you are looking for dual DVI, nVidia has a 8600GT for around $100 but may need to get connector to power the card with your current diet.

  • Compaq presario cq42 screen becomes black when the external monitor is unplugged

    Compaq presario cq42-137tu running windows 7 32 bit.

    I've been using a connected external display on the vga port and now every time I disconnect the monitor and restart the laptop the laptop LCD screen will display the original message of compaq and the black windows boot screen with the logo but then turns off. If I reconnect the extrnal monitor it will work fine (even if the external monitor is turned off)

    The screen of the laptop works fine without the external monitor connected in safe mode.

    I used both the HP support and the setting in the display panel to select single monitor and set the display on the screen of the laptop, but every time that the external monitor is not connected the screen turns off. The external screen does not need to be turned on, just to connect to the laptop monitor work. I also tried to download the graphics driver and put it back.

    If your laptop is a ComPaq base model then there is the (built-in) Intel UMA / GMA 4500 M - GL40 chipset with video memory sharing and you should consider downloading and installing the driver Intel graphics high definition (HD).

  • 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 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.

    Kind regards
