  • Problem with new Compaq CQ58

    I bought a Compaq CQ58-201SA as a surprise gift for my young grandson.

    BEFORE GIVING IT to HIM, I want to load some programs, so it's all ready for him to go.  However, when you start the new laptop for this purpose, I get invited to "Choose a color" (for display) and "Name your computer" as part of the initial installation process.  Well, I don't want to do this - it's for my grandson to decide later - but I find it impossible to overtake this screen without entering a name.

    How can I pass this screen?  And will there be obstacles to go through before I can start loading the new similar software?

    Please help a Grandpa who are struggling!

    Thank you very much, Kalt.

    It's a shame I won't be able to get his laptop in the mode "ready to go" before giving him the gift.  Well...

    Thanks again for your quick and helpful response.

  • Realtek ethernet error code driver 35, Compaq CQ58, Windows 8.1

    Hello.

    I have a new laptop Compaq CQ58-353EM. It came with preinstalled system (Windows 8). Subsequently, I installed Windows and HP updates.

    The problem I have is with the Realtek PCIe FE Family Controller (ethernet). In Device Manager, it is represented by a yellow triangle with an exclamation point. In the State of the device, it is stated: your computer's system firmware does not include enough information to properly configure and use this device. To use this device, contact the manufacturer to obtain a firmware or an update of the BIOS of your computer. (Code 35).

    Laptop has everything system and hp updates installed.

    I have tried the following to resolve the problem:

    -2 versions of various bios (F.26 and F.25).

    -several add/remove/reinstall the Realtek drivers

    -2 different versions of Realtek drivers: 8.3.730.2012 and 8.20.815.2013 (extract from the Realtek site).

    Ethernet works OK on Ubuntu.

    Any suggestions or solutions to this problem?

    My compaq cq58 windows 8 simple, is 2 months old. It began to vibrate on start up. and also to use. What could be the cause and how can I do away with it. y at - it software that I could have installed that could possibly be the cause. Also, it became slow. Help, please.

    my friends hp series had similar problems and crashed in the process, it no longer works. This thng is new so what could be the problem

    Hello pgachire.  I understand that your phone vibrates.



    There are really only a part inside the computer that could cause vibrations and which would be the hard drive.  Inside the car there is the platters that spin at a very high rate, the problem must be there.  I suggest you first run a diagnostic on your hard drive to make sure it is in working condition.  This document contains the instructions to test the hard drive.



    Also, because this notebook is so new, I recommend you contact HP support directly and let them know about the issue as well.  The number of customers in the United States / Canada is 1-800-474-6836.  If you are in another part of the world, you visit HP's Support around the world to find the coordinates for your region.



    I'll keep an eye the diagnostic results.  You have a wonderful day!

  • CQ58-bf9WM Courrpted BIOS Compaq

    I tried to fix my Compaq CQ58-bf9WM friends. First, I tried to see if it was under warranty. It is not the case. The warranty expired last month. An inspection further, I found that the hard drive was dead, because it gives the click of death. I tested on another computer just to be sure. I can't access all the data from the hard drive. Fortunately, I have a few Spears that I don't mind my friend with. I advanced and installed a trail of windows 7 on the hard drive and all was fine. I was trying to install all the drivers, when I started to update the BIOS. Now, it's the problem. I did not look closely enough and a windows update reset the computer during execution of the update of the BIOS. After reboot, the BIOS fails to detec of bootable devices even when the widows 7 disc is in the drive. I cannot start anything without getting this message now. I first tried to make a USB UEIF recovery and press WIN + B but the USB flashing only for a few seconds, stops, then caps lock flashes twice with a pause before she again this model. I guess that means corrupt BIOS flashers I know. I tried to extract the .exe file to get the sync .bin file and I put the 0169A.bin that I find in the current folder and I get nothing on reboot.  I tried to rename in 0169.bin and still nothing. I also read that I may need to put the current BIOS.bin and the BIOS.sig in the current folder for the BIOS to start the update. I tried using Phoenix Andy tool to generate the BIOS.bin and the BIOS.sig. Andy's Phoenix tool does not recognize the .bin file which comes from extraction. I can just be provided with the .bin and .sig file I need? I have all of the installation program, that I just cannot generate two files that I need. Is there an easier way? In the old days, I know I could have done a disk with the image on it, but it is not possible now. If there is another way that I'd be happy to try it. Thank you all anwser is useful.

    OK I fixed it! The HARD death disc worked somehow :/ I was able to restore the image of the BIOS it and the computer working again. It's weird because the disk boot more and I was unable to extract anything of him as a second HDD, but apparently the HP_TOOLS partition was still in tact.

    Hello Fiona-s,

    Thanks for posting in the Forum of Support HP!

    I'm afraid that the HARD drive has failed - the question is material one and all simply restore/reinstall will not solve it. Yes, you need to replace the HARD disk new or better with the SSD. SSDS are up to 10 times faster than hard drives:

    > http://ocz.com/consumer/ssd-guide/ssd-vs-hdd

    > https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solid-state_drive

    There are more than 100 manufacturers and sellers SSD, but personally, I would choose Samsung, Intel, Toshiba, or OCZ ones.

    Microsoft Windows 7, 8.1, and 10 have supported for SSDS. Vista and XP - no

    You will need a recovery media to restore the windows once you have installed the new SSD or HARD disk.

    You can get possible by contacting HP Support. Here's how:

  • How to replace Windows 8 with Windows 7 on a Compaq CQ58

    Hello!

    Yesterday, I bought a Compaq CQ58 with Windows 8 on it. I would buy Windows 7 to replace Windows 8 with. But:

    1. it is posible to change 06:52 on my laptop CQ58?

    2 and if so, can I have programs default HP on this subject?

    3 and if so, how?

    When you request support, please provide the model name and product number complete (p/n) of the HP computer in question. HP/Compaq made thousands of computer models. Without this information, it can be difficult, even impossible to help you solve your problem.

    The information requested above are on the bottom of your computer, inside the battery compartment or on the BIOS boot screen. Please see How can I find my model number or product number? for help more to find this information. DO NOT include your serial number. Please enter the product/model information consumer HP Online Support page and post it here for our review.

    1. it is posible to change 06:52 on my laptop CQ58? YES, it is probably possible to install Windows 7 on your computer.

    2 and if so, can I have programs default HP on this subject? NO.

    3 and if so, how?

    WARNING *.

    HP does not recommend installing Windows 7 on a consumer computer comes with Windows 8, and it will support the installation of Windows 7. HP doesn't provide drivers for Windows 7 and the appropriate drivers are not available for the hardware in the computer. In addition, Windows 7 can not take in charge some of the hardware or software designed for the computer.

    Make sure you create your media recovery HP or USB Flash Recovery discs before you edit or change anything.

    You will need to DISABLE "Secure Boot" and ENABLE "Legacy Support" in the "Configuration of the BIOS start-up secure" on the settings page similar to what is shown below, until you try to install Windows 7.

    After you save the changes, the computer will ask you to confirm the changes... Accept the changes by typing the four digit code and press the ENTER"" key.

    If you install from a USB key and see a message of "load a driver - a required CD/DVD drive device is missing", it's because as 'System Configuration' > 'Config USB3.0 in pre-start' is set to 'Enabled '. This should be set to 'Auto '. This should clear up the CD/DVD device is missing.

    In addition, as the hard drive is probably partitioned as TPG, you must start using the internal CD/DVD UEFI or UEFI-Key/key USB to install Windows on a GPT-partitioned disk. Turn on or restart the computer and press "F9" or "ESC", then "F9" when prompted. Select the source of boot UEFI you use and you press "ENTER".

    I suggest using Windows 7 SP1 for the best installation experience. If you need Windows SP1, see 'How to install Windows 7 without the disc' to download and create your own disc of Windows 7 SP1. If the DVD does not start as UEFI, you may need to use a USB Flash drive (can ask "Quick start" DISABLING in BIOS) as the installation media. Please download the Windows 7 USB/DVD download tool to create a Windows 7 SP1 USB Flash drive. Please note that some computers may not recognize a valid active UEFI USB Flash drive if it is formatted in NTFS and may require only a FAT32 formatted USB Flash drive. You should be able to make a FAT32 formatted Windows 7 installation USB Flash drive using Rufus, UNetbootin, Universal USB Installeror WiNToBootic. I like Rufus, because it contains options for 'Plan of GPT partition for UEFI computer' and 'FAT32'.

    From the top...

    (1) turn on the computer and immediately start typing the key "ESC".

    (2) when the MENU is displayed, press "F10".

    3) navigate the BIOS to the "System Configuration", 'USB 3.0 pré-OS Config' and the value 'Auto '.

    4) navigate the BIOS to the "System Configuration", "Startup Options" and "Secure Boot" the value 'Legacy Support' the value "Enabled" and "Disabled"

    5) press "F10" and click "YES" to "Exit Saving Changes".

    (6) computer should restart and display "Change of operating system startup Mode"... type the four digit code, then press "ENTER".

    (7) let Windows 8 boot to the top and put the Windows 7 SP1media in the drive to DVD or a USB port, then logout / stop.

    (8) to turn on the computer and immediately start typing the key "ESC".

    (9) when the MENU is displayed, press the key "F9" and then select the correct boot UEFI source (CD/DVD drive internal, USB drive, CD/DVD, USB Flash drive, etc.). ... Press any key to start the CD/DVD, if prompted.

    (10) select "Language", "time / currency ' and 'Keyboard' settings and then click"Next ".

    11) click on 'install now '... Check "Accept terms" and click "next". Click on "Custom (Advanced)".

    (12) you may need to provide Intel or AMD SATA/RAID drivers at the moment...

    (13) ' where do you want to install Windows 7? Select "Disk / Partition" with "Unallocated space", you created earlier, and then click "next".

    (14) follow all instructions and meet the need. Enter the Windows 7 key when asked.

    (15) download and install the drivers from the support page for your computer.

    After installing the drivers, please post the "Hardware ID" Device Manager (text only) for all other devices missing or unknown as illustrated in the example below.

    If you have any other questions, feel free to ask.
