My Compaq Presario CQ61 battery.

The battery on my laptop has been replaced when less than 12 months and now it shows again the problems.  Is this true, if I'm not very impressed by that.  My laptop is only 16 months old and will be on his 2nd battery!  Can anyone help?

(1) have you calibrated your battery ever?  It was a must do from the beginning

(2) using performance mode for a regime of power options?  Balanced is optimal and better for the longevity of the battery

(3) don't you let your laptop connected to the power adapter, when it is not in use? When the load is low, plug, load it, and unplug it.

If you do one or a combination of what I asked you, you have, perhaps inadvertently, shortened the life of your laptop battery.

Most who do this just don't realize there are ways to treat a laptop battery, if you want to have the optimal way to battery life and ease of use.

  • Compaq Presario CQ61-420US no start/black screen

    Hi all.

    I have a compaq presario CQ61-420US having similar problems below, except I have a black screen, fan flashing lights turns is the same (num lock and cap lock) but they Flash continuously every second or 2.  I tried the hard reset with the fix of ram, connect an external monitor, change the battery and the power adapter, nothing helps. I also used the air compressed on the vents, just in case was riddled with dust because it overheats and can cause problems, but nothing.

    Any other suggestions?

    An option I can think of is to buy a new motherboard, but I'm going to try something else before that.

    AlexisGonzalezC,

    You can try the above solution the other person sugguested.

    Sorry, but it is very difficult to help without a touch your computer and troubleshoot it if there is a hardware problem.

    I predict that GPU your computer has a pseudo brazing or cold joint problem.

    Good luck.

  • Compaq Presario CQ61, unable to boot the laptop

    Compaq Presario CQ61 running Windows 7 Home Premium (build 7601) bought about 4 years ago.

    Computer failed to restart after a period of sleep.  I suspect that it doesn't have an automatic restart after automatic installation of an update - it's only a guess because I have no access to the computer at the moment, but I had a similar problem recently - on this occasion, I got a 'Safe Mode' start - by pressing F8 repeatedly gave me access to the appropriate screen.  I've implemented subsequently by restoring the system to a point just before a automatic installation of a critical Windows Update, and that seemed to do the trick.

    On this occasion the F8 route has no effect on the problem; the 'caps lock' and 'NumLock' continually of the blink just of LED (i.e. not a limited number of times), the fan starts, but there is no other sign of life.  I tried a hard restart, but without result.  I also removed and replaced memory, but once again no effect.

    Can you please advise.

    I'm so sorry I couldn't help you solve the problem, but maybe you could try to free the keyboard, nothing will happen if you do not lose the cpu and tight again. I know that the keyboard one is hard, persevering, best wishes.

  • 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

    You are the very welcome.

    I'm not a PC repair in commerce or training technology, but that you normally get the message means that the hard drive has failed and needs to be replaced.

    Also, you need to reinstall the operating system on the hard drive of replacement (if you choose to replace it).

It comes stock with a CPU AMD Anthlon II M300 and I wonder if I can replace it with a CPU AMD Anthlon II M340 since they are the two socket S1, 35W TDP and they were released at the same time, so I think that the firmware should support two processors.
