  • Compaq Presario CQ57-104TU: upgrade Ram, memory (Ram Hynix PC3L-12800)

    Hello world

    I have a Compaq Presario CQ57-104TU. I recently decided to upgrade the ram (currently 1 x 2 GB Elpida PC3 - 10600 1333 Mhz). I bought 2 x 4 Gb Hynix HMT451S6AFR8A, PC3L-12800. Unfortunitely when I install the new Ram (Hynix)

    the computer does not start. Is there something I can do or the Ram is not compatible?

    Any help would be appreciated,

    André

    Here is the Service Manual:

    Manual

    See p.2. Specified memory is DDR3-1333 1.5 volt and you try to install low-voltage DDR3-1600. In addition, memory that you are trying to install is high density, because it has 4 blocks on each side, where I am betting that original memory was of low density (8 blocks). Long story short, it is not compatible. It do you no good to install DDR3-1600 by the way. Best of cases, it will anyway be downclock speed 1333.

    Could you recommend me a better processor? & a RAM if you consider it necessary for this purpose?

    Thank you

    RAM is much easier updating. I recommend at least 4 gigs, and it will take up to 8. She takes DDR3-1333 SO-DIMM memory. CQ57-339WM seems to be your model.

    This is the service manual you need to swap processors:

    Manual

    The CQ57s equipped with a Celeron processor will accept only the Celeron processors. There are a couple more quickly available for your computer Celeron, but exchanging a Celeron for a another Celeron just doesn't seem worth it to me.

    If you want the computer to run more quickly install 4 GB of RAM and upgrade to a disk hard solid state. The speed improvement is actually more you'd get from opting for a faster Celeron processor. After the back if you want more specific suggestions.

  • Presario CQ57: I would like to change my intel pentium processor by an another core i5, it is possible

    Hello
    I have a Compaq Presario CQ57 Notebook PC with Intel Pentium CPU B950 @ 2.10 and 4 GB of RAM for 32-bit x 64 operating system, I find on the internet another processor Intel Core (TM) i5 - 2430 M 3 M, up to 3.00 GHz, I want to know if I can buy this for my Compaq Presario CQ57 I5?

    Sorry no.

    Here is the Manual:

    Manual

    See Page 19. Intel Core (for example an i5) and Intel Pentium (you have now) processors use a different motherboard. So if you bought the i5 he would fit into the socket but the laptop would not PUBLISH.

  • Compaq Presario CQ57-445EQ: recovery of the BIOS Compaq Presario CQ57 445EQ

    So I got this Compaq Presario CQ57-445EQ with Windows 7 and 4 GB of ram. Last night I tried to upgrade the BIOS of the first version (2008) to the last (2015) and he got bricks. During the upgrade, it got stuck for 30 minutes and I had to reboot. Now it is black screen, caps lock shift will blink twice every 2 seconds. I tried to recover from USB with sp55356 and sp64612 but no luck.

    I should mention that Win + B, Fn + B, Fn + Esc combinations is not the tone of the laptop, but it shows a USB activity.

    What can I do? Bios versions are .fd files.

    Thanks in advance!

    Not that I know of.

    You may need to purchase recovery media usb to your laptop to HP or HP partner.

  • Compaq Presario CQ57-339WM: Compaq Presario CQ57-339WM randomly fails to start

    I had a very strange problem with my Compaq Presario CQ57-339WM laptop. My laptop suddenly, carefully and randomly last night, didn't start the operating system. It's all the way to the start screen, but who could not pass.

    Safe mode wouldn't work, nor any attempt to use System Repair, so I was forced to use the Recovery Manager to reload the operating system.

    Given that what happened at least three times before, I honestly don't know what is the cause. It may be a virus, because I take care of is not to infect the computer and the hard disk is reformatted every time that the OS is reloaded, and I'm sure he doesn't have to do with any other software, including the operating system. No matter who would be able to help me with this rather strange dilemma I had some?

    NOTE 1: This has also happened at random intervals completely - the last time it happened was several months ago, and you the shortest time between the issues around a few days.

    NOTE 2: This computer has had its fair share of abuse - he struck from time to time and is quite old at this point.

    SYSTEM card (in which case it might be useful):

    CPU: Intel Celeron 1.50 GHz B800

    RAM: 4.00 Go DDR3-1600 (upgrade; also the problems until I installed RAM)

    : HARD disk SATA 5400 RPM 320 GB (?) (not upgraded)

    BIOS: update to the latest version (F.39, if I'm not mistaken; questions had also arisen before that the BIOS has been updated)

    Have implemented so many devices (monitor, mouse, printer, speakers)

    Defective HARD drive probably just, who is giving up

  • What are the causes the limit 2 Gig Ram in m1170n Media Center computer?

    What are the causes the limit 2 Gig Ram in m1170n Media Center computer? It can be corrected? Makes for a much slower PC than it could be. I can update only 1 3/4 Gig and yet it can begin.  I tried the bios update that is available on this site, but it doesn't seem to change anything. It would be much nicer I could date within the limits of the operating system. 4 GB. Don't know what I'll use this 4 PC yet, but this could be the deciding factor.

    Here are the specifications of your HP Media Center m1170n desktop computer and its card mother PTGD1-(Puffer). Based on the specifications, this model has a maximum HP approved limit memory 4 GB (4 x 1 GB = 4 GB). The problem you are experiencing is perhaps due to incorrect memory modules, modules of memory defective or damaged, defective or damaged memorty slots or a very defective or damaged motherboard.

    Run the available at startup BIOS Diagnostics or download "memtest86" and create a bootable media. Then, run the test on each module individually, in the same housing. If all modules pass, rerun the test... this time by adding an additional module... Repeat until all slots are filled and all modules of memory are used.

  • adding memory to a presario CQ57-489wm

    I bought a Presario CQ57-489WM and you want to add memory me. How do the cards memory under the keyboard?

    I intend to do it myself and have done several times. If I can't I'll just return the laptop and get a Toshiba instead...

    In general, there are about 6 screws under the battery that must be removed.  These screws usually keep the scope on the top of the attached keyboard. It can be more or less 6.  Sometimes there are screws on each side of the battery goes throughout the case this scope as well, but not always. There is also a screw that is located in the Middle many laptops in the middle with a picture of a keyboard embossed on the plastic that holds the keyboard key (some models do not have this and some do).  The upper bezel along the upper part of the keyboard should raise with gentile persuasion.  Make sure you don't pull it off because the plastic ribbon cables can be connected to it so go slow.  This should indicate 3 or 4 screws on the top of the keyboard.  When you remove these screws, you should be able to tilt the keyboard away so that you reach memory.  The keyboard also has a slick plastic attached to the motherboard so be gentle.  Here are the General instructions to remove a keyboard.  I do not have, nor have I ever removed this particular keyboard.  Good luck!

  • Need to "downgrade" my Compaq Presario CQ57 of Windows 8

    A few weeks ago, I upgraded my Presario CQ57 to Windows 8.  Well, I don't like her, and I now have a desktop computer that is anyway a touchscreen that works beautifully.  I thought about my computer limited knowledge that I had created the backup disks to restore my system to Windows 7 Home Premium, but it turns out it's a repair disc.

    Is it possible for me to order the right from HP disk to return my laptop for Windows 7?  I found something on the internet with this post: http://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Desktop-Operating-Systems-e-g/The-Cleanest-Install-Windows-7-Recovery-D...

    I don't know what to do.  Any help would be appreciated!  Thank you!

    Hello:

    Please read the info on the link below to see how to order for your PC recovery disc:

    http://support.HP.com/us-en/document/bph07143

    I believe that my instructions are easy to follow to make your own install of W7 media, if you do more like that.

    You can also make your own regular install of W7 disc and allows to reinstall windows 7 If you can read the product key 25 character microsoft on the COA sticker on the case of the PC. You will have none of the programs supplied with the PC using this method, however.

    If you can read the Microsoft windows 7 25-character product key, you can download simple Windows 7 ISO files to burn on a DVD for the version of windows that is installed on your PC, and which is listed on the Microsoft COA sticker on your PC case.

    Burn the ISO with the option to burn the ISO on your DVD burning program and burn it at the slowest possible speed that will allow your program. This will create a bootable DVD.

    Or use the installation of Windows 7 USB/DVD tool to compile the ISO file that you download from Digital River. Link and instructions below. You need a 4 GB flash drive to use the USB compilation method.

    http://www.microsoftstore.com/store/msstore/HTML/pbPage.Help_Win7_usbdvd_dwnTool

    Use 25 characters on the PC product key to activate the installation.

    The key will activate a 32 or 64 bit installation.

    Then go to the support of the PC and driver page to install the drivers you need.

    Link to downloads ISO of W7 is below.

    What should I do to get rid of this problem?  Please help me someone.

    Welcome to the community of HP @ANAKONDA support,

    Thank you for joining on the HP's Support Forums! It is a great place to ask questions, find solutions and get help from others in the community! I read your post on the Forums of HP Support.

    I wanted to join you and help! I understand that you have a problem with an APPLICATION (501) BIOS ERROR on your Compaq Presario CQ57 laptop PC.

    Remove all USB devices. Disconnect all non-essential devices, because they can cause some problems.

    Try starting your laptop normally after having disconnected all. If that does not solve the problem, please continue with troubleshooting.

    The next step would be for you to try to restore the BIOS. You will see that the document says:

    If the BIOS of your laptop becomes corrupted, and a failure to upgrade the BIOS or damage caused by a virus, the computer can display all the following symptoms:

    • The computer displays the error message from the BIOS APPLICATION ERROR 501.

    After restoring the BIOS see if you can start the computer normally.
