Presario CQ61 - 410SQ CPU replacement

Hello

I have a laptop Compaq Presario CQ61-410SQ and recently my CPU stopped working. I was wondering if I can change it and I found this CPU is compatible: AMD Athlon II Dual - Core M320 2.1 GHz CPU AMM320DB022GQ

Thank you!

How do you know that the CPU no longer works? It's much, much more likely to be the motherboard.

You will need this anyway:

Your repair manuals

And Yes, the processor you mention is one who fits on your motherboard and will work on the assumption that the motherboard is good. See Page 1-1.

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.

  • 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.

  • HP Presario CQ61-334ER: Windows 7 license

    Hello!
    A few years ago, I bought a HP Presario CQ61-334ER laptop with OS Windows 7 Home Basic already installed license.  Windows license key is noted on the label on the laptop, but there is no CD drive with the operating system.

    Now, there are a few problems with the hard drive, so I have to replace it with a new HARD drive.

    Can I reinstall the same version of Windows 7 on a new hard drive, using the psecified license key Windows on a laptop? Or I can reinstall OS on the new HARD drive using system repair discs?

    For your first game, you can try to order the HP recovery media to install so that you can restore it to the factory. See first part...

    Get a HP USB recovery or HP recovery disc drive
    Read this before ordering your recovery discs! (United States and Canada only)
    Creation of recovery disks or saving a recovery Image on a USB key-CD/DVD (Windows 7)

    As for your second part, your key to produce both that the laptop was unique to your laptop and located on the COA sticker. You can reinstall Windows 7, but it must match your previous Windows 7 Home Basic not another different version of Windows 7. Then your product key will work and you can re-enable again to make it work. If you bought a different version and higher to Windows 7 then you should got a new product with him key to activate the Windows 7 new with this.

    Thanks in advance.

  • Compaq Presario CQ61 - 417SA Notebook PC Freeze issues

    Hello everyone

    I have a Compaq Presario CQ61 - 417SA Notebook PC running on Windows 7 Home Premium. The laptop freezes at random times, sometimes minutes after use or an hour after use. It does not result by clicking on a program or a file. I have printing freeze the problem may be caused by the failure of the hardware, possibly the HARD drive.

    Here are a few observations from the laptop and the things that I tried to diagnose or repair.

    • During a typical blocking the HDD LED light is always on
    • Also had the blue screen and freeze black screen
    • No error message
    • Hard disk becomes very hot
    • Entered the BIOS and run automatic test of the primary hard drive and memory Test using InsydeH20 Setup utility but it went together.
    • Laptop computer has been completely reset to factory settings so it is impossible due to the high utilization of the processor
    • Idle while the CPU usage is generally of the order of 13%-25%, with a peak of rare of 53%
    • The hard drive is a Western digital Scorpio Black 320 GB 2.5 "SATA

    The laptop is not used so wiping back to settings to original wasn't a problem, but I would like to return to a usable level.

    Thanks for any help you could offer

    Mike

    I was certain insistence autour in my computer and I'm done to restore back to factory settings. So far, it has not frozen and seems to work properly.

    I tried updating the BIOS with HP Support Assistant, but it does not work. Hoping to solve the problem I went online and updated my support Assistant. After this success, I then managed to download the BIOS from internet F.15 version I was also looking for. Everything seems to work quite fine at the moment, although there are a few updates to Windows that will not be installed. The progress bar shows the animation download but the installation hangs at 1 / 8. Some items are classified as "recommended" or "important" so any help with this problem would be immensely appreciated!

  • Presario CQ61-312SA boot selection failed because a required device is inaccessible

    I get the message "boot selection failed because a required device is unreachable" on my computer laptop presario CQ61-312SA. I don't have the CD containing the disks but I do not have a premium Windows 7, 32 and 64-bit family OS disk. I tried to restore to former factory settings using f11 which does not reach 50%.

    Hello

    As I see that the hard drive on your unit has failed you need to replace the hard drive, then reinstall the operating system on your device then only unit will return to operational status.

    If your laptop is still under warranty, contact HP and arrange for the disc replaced.

    If you are out of warranty and would like a guide to replacing the hard drive yourself, let me know.

    Let us know how it goes!

  • Laptop hardware failure, no bios, on Presario CQ61 unknown error code

    Hello

    I have a presario CQ61-417SA, a little more than two years. Work is to put and received persistent of the flashing lights on the locking caps and num lock keys only. The lights flash continuously and therefore does not seem to correspond with any one of the error codes provided by the HP support pages.

    I tried:

    Check the fans for excessive heat (seems normal)

    Remove the RAM and swap ram slot positions

    Replace the RAM with new ram

    Remove and re insert a hard disk to see if any changes

    Attempted to reboot the system BIOS using the windows + B key as is described in the hp support no chance

    Remove the WIFI to achieve was not causing problems

    Replace the battery of the BIOS with a working version

    Checked the laptop computer charger with a multi meter, is perfect

    Tried with and without the battery to ensure this causing problems wasent

    However I still not got lucky. Im a little annoyed about how the laptop isn't really that old and that the guarantee is over, so there is not much I can do without having to pay a lot of money.

    I took a few laptops out and so im happy to do things myself, and would appreciate any guidance or advice you may have.

    Thanks for your time

    Sorry for not updating. I found the problem.

    The heat sink had never touched the gpu and there seems to be one problem with other laptops hp and compaq (and other laptop manufacturers). Thermal paste had not yet touched the gpu, it looked fresh as if it had been the same day. I suppose therefore that solder joints had melted from the heat.

    The way I fixed it is probably not recommended by HP (I don't think anyone should really do, its dangerous, and you should really buy a new motherboard). I took all of the motherboard all stickers, battery, whatever it is removable. Then put in the oven at 200 ° c for 8 min let weld refuses or get a proffessional do it with a real soldering tool. You then put a piece of copper between the radiator and the gpu to make it work. (I have this and its broke again) so the time to get a new laptop.

    I think this question shows terrible production and control of this piece of hardware that have produced as his obvious fault that they should do something to fix in new laptops and the HP and compensate its customers with laptops like mine repair parts that now have to buy a new because of the guarantee short and overpriced.
