• Compaq Presario F700 laptop - replacement of Ethernet (NIC)

  Hi all!

  I have recently switched to my laptop to XP. I had the hardest time finding drivers for the LAN.  So I finally found them and now the connection is always limited or no connectivity when connected via ethernet.

  I tried to release and renew the IP address, but the system is unable to renew it through CMD.  My internet works fine with my other two computers.  I used the same ethernet cable connected to this computer to my laptop and they are all lead to limited connectivity or not.

  I think that the NETWORK card must be replaced, but I can't find the replacement part number.  I don't see the number for the WLAN.  Could this be the same room?  I don't think so, because the wireless is fine, it's just the connection to the LAN which I seem to have a problem with.  I see not even where I can access the bottom of the laptop ethernet card.

  I received the spare part of this thread - http://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Notebook-Hardware/Compaq-Presario-F700-Laptop-NIC-Replacement/td-p/1639...

  Anyone know what part I need to replace the LAN ethernet, not wifi adapter?  (unless they are the same, want to make sure before order).

  Thank you!

  Hello:

  To replace the ethernet card, you will need to replace the motherboard together.

  The link you mentioned (which I answered the way back when), was to replace the wireless network card.

  I recommend that you just buy an adapter USB to RJ-45 ethernet until you buy a new PC.

  If your laptop has an amd processor, XP driver you should use.

• Updated BIOS for Compaq F700 computer laptop Windows 7 OS

  I am trying to upgrade the BIOS for Compaq F700 computer laptop F.04 to F.08 worm!

  I can do it under Windows 7 OS (the sp39468 WinFlash file is recommended under Vista environment)?

  Thank you

  Make sure that your antivirus program is disabled. It should be in safe mode, but check to be sure.

  If the antivirus program is active for a windows-based BIOS flash, the antivirus program may try to interrupt the flash 'think' a virus attacks the BIOS. A BIOS flash interrupted computer = death.

• Compaq Presario 2586US laptop - hard drive upgrade

  Recently, I took a chance and bought 2 'parts only' Compaq Presario 2500 laptop computer series off Ebay and was able to make a unique work PC with motherboard of the 2586US being the motherboard, I used.  I don't have a hard drive, so I bought a Samsung 160 GB ATA drive.  Turns out I have to not need the adapter on the end of bus because it plugged right in the motherboard making.  The reader is supposed to be ATA100 and ATA133 at the upper end (I don't remember which).  I put the drive and installed Windows.  I noticed that it seemed slow but Windows showed the disc to the original format.  Then I went to dual-boot with a Linux distribution and encountered errors.  Thanks to a lot of research on the web I found the BIOS and the IDE interface itself (?) apparently does not have a drive larger than 137 GB.  I checked the BIOS and indeed it says the maximum usable size 137 GB.  It also shows the transfer rate to DMA2, which, as I understand it, means that it is only the transfer to 33 MB instead of 100 or 133 MB.  The service manual says ATA100, so it should support a transfer DMA5 rate.

  I don't pretend to understand all of this at all.  So, I'm looking for help.

  (1) is anyway to go beyond 137 GB on a hard drive in this laptop?

  (2) otherwise, it's the fact that my drive is actually 160 GB when the PC support 137Go cause more problems?

  (3) what should I do to obtain a rate of transfer beyond DMA2?  The configuration of the BIOS doesn't let me tab this field to change.

  Thanks for any help and explanations that I can understand.  Don't forget that I am just your average Joe and not some kind of expert at all.  I found a lot of this on the web but don't know what it means.

  Thanks in advance!

  After a lot of research and reading on the net, I found the following link:

  http://wwwcsif.cs.ucdavis.edu/~leeey/A7A266/

  Basically, the driver ALi M5229 was the problem.  It was not really support the DMA modes.  The link explains this and provides a link for the driver of the UDMA for the chip (it is not only the miniport driver that you get from the Compaq/HP site).  I installed it, had to reboot about 3 or 4 times due to messages "new hardware has been installed, but a reboot is required.  When I finally got around those I noticed that in Device Manager I see the ALi controller and it is listed as a UDMA controller now.  The individual channels are not displayed (the pilot seems to configure the drives as SCSI peripheral nickname).  Using the included ALi utility, it shows my driver running at ATA100/133.  Startup, everything including startup items until my office is there, the system's busiest has been reduced to about 1/4 or 1/5 while she was before.   I have a new system of hearts for my office, so sometimes I think that it still seems a bit slow, but there is a world of difference between a modern quad core system and this old laptop P4 architecture, etc..  But okay, the laptop works fine now in Windows.  Now I'll have to see what it looks like for Linux, because I have no idea what it uses for the driver ALi M5229.

  I think we can safely call this thread closed, how ever do you that.  Somehow, I thought she was going to be a bit obscure, and I guess you can say it was!

  Thank you all for any help here!

• The Compaq Presario 2100 laptop SSD upgrade

  I have a laptop Compaq Presario 2100 it was brand new in 2003. I have a newer laptop, but a train trying to upgrade the Presario 2100 as much as possible. This is the kind of a project now and I also want to get as much as possible out of it. I heard that SSDS are super fast and would improve performance a bit. Anyone did the upgrade to an SSD for their Persario 2100 notebook PC series already? All entries are appreciated, in particular information about the product that was used for the upgrade. If no one did, so nobody knows if it is possible to upgrade the Presario 2100 series laptop PC to an SSD?

  Thank you

  Huck

  Believe it or not, the maintenance manual is always available.

  Manual

  The Presario 2100 uses old school PATA (EIDE) hard disks that are different from those of the SSD SATA see you more often on the market. However, there is a PATA SSD. They cost a bit more per concert, of course. I put a PATA SSD in a laptop on the same vintage as the Presario 2100 and it does significantly improve start-up time and overall performance, but talk about the proverbial earrings on a pig!

  This is a 64 GB SSD PATA that would be perfect for the Presario 2100, but $ 90:

  On eBay you will probably find 32 gig for a little less versions.

• Presario V2036AP / PP967PA #UUF: Compaq Presario V2000 laptop / laptop SSD upgrade

  I have a Compaq Presario model No. Laptop computer V2036AP.

  It's Nr is PP967PA #UUF.

   

  Other details are,

  • Processors:-Intel Centrino
  • RAM:-upgrade to 2 GB (1 GB x 2)
  • OS:-upgrades to Windows 7 Home Edition, Service Pack 1, 32-Bit

   

  The HARD original disk that came with the laptop crashed 2 days back (November 1, 2015) and since then, I searched like crazy on the net about upgrading to an SSD, but did not all relevant information on my particular model referred to above and therefore this message.

  My questions are:-

  • Option-1, can I get an internal SSD 128 or 256 GB?
  • If so, what should be the specifications for the SSD?
  • Should what changes I make for the Option-1?
  • Option-2, can I get an SSD external and operated through one of the 3 USB Ports?
  • Should what changes I make for the Option-2?
  • Option-3, can I mount a HARD drive external and operated through one of the 3 USB Ports?
  • Should what changes I make for the Option-3?
  • Option-4, can I mount a 128 or 256 GB internal HARD drive?
  • What should be the specifications for HARD drive internal for Option-4?

  I'm really interested to be my laptop above through SSD only, so if anyone can give a solution for this purpose, it will be very very useful.

  Waiting for your first answers & thanks in advance!

  Best regards

  No he is the type of hard disk and how it connects, and you have this kind

  

  And an SSD is like this:

  

  See the difference in the interface? It is a kind of hole plug round/square of the thing. I could go on technically on different types of storage controllers and how to optimize the speed of SSD, but the different plug-ins is a killer deal from the outset.

  On what you can do if you want to speed up the hard disk, performance is to find a 7200 RPM hard drive PATA (top photo), which will be much faster than 4200 or 5400 RPM nature, which is probably what has / have. I actually bought a supply of 60 GB 7200 RPM IDE/PATA drives of the laptop that I use in my hobby of refurbishing older laptops. I don't want to sell to a member of the Forum HP (kind of conflict of interest), but I can probably direct you to the place I got them if you will send me a PM.

  My best real advice is that your laptop if it were a car would have the right to have "Antique" plates and is actually just a little newer than some of the 'old' portable in my "vintage" collection The market is very respectful of the buyer and you can get a laptop that will run rings around you for maybe $300 these days and will allow you to use a modern OS with a semblance of security. I don't think not that your could run anything newer than XP.

• Difficult to update and download of Windows Vista on Compaq Presario F500 laptop...

  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
